The Events Calendar and GeneratePress Premium Header

Hi Chris,

Are you able to provide a link where it's not working so we can take a look?

Thanks.

Here's a demo version:

So basically you have a page header not showing on that page?

I'm not familiar with the plugin but ‘Default Events Template’ doesn't include sidebars I assume? I can probably fix that unwanted gap easily.

Let me know :)

Yep- you got it! No sidebars for that template...

As a curiosity, how do you fix the gap?

ahh I think see what's happening. That's a blog page and Wordpress ignores all meta boxes on index pages.

Try adding it in Blog > Page Header Image/content.

Gaps can usually be fixed with few lines of CSS.

Let me know if this works :)

No Luck I'm afraid...

Is that an actual page you can edit in the back-end?

If so, are all of your options saved inside the Page Header meta box still?

Hi Tom,

The plug-in creates a custom-post called tribe_events

In the back-end, it functions very similarly to a blog post.

Yes - for that example, the header meta info is still present. I have tried another example without it - same result.

Cheers
Chris

Any chance you can email me temporary admin login details and a link to the problem page?: https://generatepress.com/contact/

Sure - done!

Been playing with this.

It seems The Events Calendar doesn't pull in post meta from the post you're creating.

While testing I tried to dump the global $post variable into the page, and the ID came back as 0. There must be something blocking it inside of their plugin.

I'll make a note of it for further testing, but currently it seems their default template isn't compatible with any post meta (sidebars, footer widgets, disable elements etc..).
