This happened to me when using Legacy styles briefly.

Enable themeroller and choose a thethroller style within Event Espresso -> template settings. Do they now appear?

Thanks for your response.

Hi Philip,

I assume you have got this fixed now as the calendar is showing the previous/next/etc buttons http://www.thecharlottechurch.org/events-calendar-2/

If there is still an issue with the calendar, please advise.

My issue was not the Previous and Next buttons, it was the Year current-previous-next buttons not shoing. Shouln’t we be able to click to see next year, then click back to the current year?

Thank you

Hi Philip,

The default calendar Header Style setting does not include calendar next and previous year buttons, but you can add them to the settings.

You can change the Header style setting by going to Event Espresso>Calendar settings and look for the first setting under “Advanced Settings”. It’s labeled Header Style.

Something like this will add a previous year button to the far left side of the calendar header, and a next year button to the far right side of the calendar header:

left: ‘prevYear,prev, today’, center: ‘title’, right: ‘month,agendaWeek,agendaDay,next,nextYear’

Thank you for responding.
When I paste this markup in the Header placeholder, and press save I get this wierd code, and the calendar totally disappears.

left: �prevYear,prev, today�, center: �title�, right: �month,agendaWeek,agendaDay,next,nextYear�

Hi Philip,

The text has the wrong single quotation marks (sounds silly, but its true!)

Try this instead

left: 'prevYear,prev, today', center: 'title', right: 
'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay,next,nextYear'

Thank You! That worked out great.
Now I have to figure out how to show the labels for the year. My users will be confused without seeing what year they are in. Sounds silly I know, but you should see some of the e-mails I get.

Hi Philip,

The previous and next year buttons have their own unique CSS classes, so you can override the themeroller CSS and apply your own images. They are:

span.fc-button-prevYear

and

span.fc-button-nextYear
