I have the custom calendar add on, however when I try to display it in the table format, it doesn’t work. I used [EVENT_CUSTOM_VIEW template_name=”calendar-table”] and it said that calendar-table could not be found. If I used [EVENT_CUSTOM_VIEW] it will display in the event table format, but that’s the only one that works.

Hi Sarah,
Have you installed and activated the Calendar Table add on? They are separate from the Custom Template Addon itself, so need to be added and activated.

Ah – that may be it – where can I find that? Thanks!

Wait I’m confused- I thought the Custom Templates Add on came with each of the different options for ways to display the calendar? If not, then what does the Custom Templates Add On do?

It turns out that Custom Templates add-on includes one template (Events Table) that displays the event list in a table.
The Custom Templates add-on also handles most of the queries for all of the other template options, so it’s required to be installed if you use any of the other template options. We tried to make it clear in the documentation that each of the different template options can be purchased separately:

One for question on this. I was playing with [EVENT_CUSTOM_VIEW] – if I put it into the WYSIWYG of the page, it works just fine, but if I go into page.php and try to hard code it, it just shows the short code. Is there a workaround where I can add the short code to the page.php file and still have it work. I’m adding it within a div within some php.

Hi Sarah,
The WordPress do_shortcode function lets you add shortcodes to PHP files like page templates:

example code:
<?php echo do_shortcode( '[EVENT_CUSTOM_VIEW]' ); ?>
