[Support request] Extra paragraph in single events display

Yes, that is the paragraph I mean. Somehow it and the container it is in are getting added. I’d like to remove them so they don’t push the rest of the event information downward.

On further investigation, I think this is happening because I added the following in The Events Calendar’s Add HTML before event content”:

<!– wp:generateblocks/container {“uniqueId”:”2214663d”,”paddingTop”:”20″,”borderSizeTop”:”1″,”borderSizeRight”:”1″,”borderSizeBottom”:”1″,”borderSizeLeft”:”1″,”backgroundColor”:”#ffffff”,”isDynamic”:true,”className”:”fuusm-box”} –>

And in “Add HTML after event content”:

<!– /wp:generateblocks/container –>

My goal is to apply the fuusm-box class to the single event display. It works, but somehow the extra container and paragraph get added.

Any thoughts? Are there other ways I should be accomplishing my formatting goals?

Thanks,
Dan

I’m absolutely certain I don’t understand! 🙂 I’m not familiar with the WP core way of adding a class–did not know that Custom Attributes would do that. In any case, my problem is that there is nothing in the editor to apply formatting to, because the single Event display is generated in The Events Calendar (TEC).

My basic goal is to make single calendar events from TEC look like my single posts, which are styled in a Content Template element. I have not been able to make a Content Template for TEC events. Here’s what I did that worked, in case it’s helpful to others:

In The Events Calendar Settings – Display – “Add HTML before event content” my modified code is now:

<!-- wp:generateblocks/container {"uniqueId":"2214663d", "isDynamic":"true", "isGlobalStyle":true, "useGlobalStyle":true, "globalStyleId": "medium-fuusm", "className":"fuusm-box"} -->

And in “Add HTML after event content”:

<!-- /wp:generateblocks/container -->

This wraps my single Event in a GB container with the desired formatting, but adds an extra container and paragraph ahead of it, which I hide with this CSS:

.gb-container-2214663d > .gb-inside-container {
    display: none;
}

I can’t escape the thought that there must be a more straightforward way to do this!

Thanks for any help,
Dan
