I can’t get the calendar plugin to display in agenda format
http://greenpeaklabs.com/tangotalent/class-calendar/

Theme = 2013 and no other plugins installed.

Installed Avada theme so I could at least show progress to my client, and now it’s even more broken.

For reference, I had this same exact issue about a year ago … seems like you guys haven’t found a resolution yet? Maybe it’s time to go look at other event managers that make more robust plugins …

Hi,

I checked your site to see what the issue is, but it seems Event Espresso has been disabled. Could you re-enable it please?

Hi Henry,

I’m not aware of an issue with the agendaWeek option not working a year ago did you post your issue in the forums then?. I switch the calendar on my test site and it’s loading up there. Is this a case where it’s not loading up or is something else not working with it?

I just reactivated event espresso and you can see that it’s only showing the calendar, not the agenda view.

Yes, I did reach out a year ago but can’t find the conversation …

Hi Henry,

I took a look at your site and it’s showing the agenda view view by default, along with the events on the correct dates. Here’s a screenshot.

Hi Josh,

I should have been clearer. I put in the calendar and the events list to see the difference between the two.

I have since removed the events list and now it’s only showing the calendar. It was my understanding that the agenda view would not show a calendar at all but a list of events (like the agenda view in Google Calendar). Is that not correct?

That’s not correct. It’s still a calendar but it display it by week instead of by Month.

Here’s a link to the demo of the agendaWeek view of the jQuery FullCalendar plugin (which is what the Event Espresso calendar is based on) to help clarify what it’s supposed to look like:

That’s the agendaWeek view which you can see how it’s different than the basicWeek view:

OK, I understand now.

How can I get it to look like a list (agenda view in gCal)? When I pull in the events list, it breaks out each ticket for each event as a separate event (i.e. Event A with 3 tiers will look like “Event A – Tier 1”, “Event A – Tier 2” etc. The biggest frustration is that they are not in order so “Event A – Tier 3” then “Event B – Tier 2” then “Event A – Tier 1” etc.)

Hi Henry,

The Google Calendar Agenda View looks like an HTML table to me. So one option that you have right now is to modify the Event list template to display the events in an html table. There are some readymade table templates in the custom files add-on that could be adapted to display the events to your specifications as well.

If you require the assistance of a developer to build this out to your specifications we can recommend any of the developers on this list:

Thank you for your comments, but this doesn’t address the issue of events being broken out by ticket level. How can I show just the event where folks can click through to see all the available tickets?

When I go here: http://greenpeaklabs.com/tangotalent/event-registration/, I’m not seeing the events broken out by ticket level. I have to click on one of the events to see the different ticket options. Do you have a link to another page that shows that behavior?
You can use the files / functions provided out of the box, ie. templates/event_list.php and templates/event_list_display.php, as the basis for custom functionality to create a display of the data in whatever manner you desire.
