Hi Kirstin,

That customer is actually using the EE4 Events Table View Template add-on.

May 1, 2015 at 5:45 am

Hi Kirstin,

Event Espresso uses your sites theme to output the event details.

The page template on that page is a content left, side bar right template.

The content of the page is a standard page using the Events view table template above for the event tables. The side bar is using the Upcoming events widget within the sidebar – http://take.ms/D8Win

I’m sorry if I’m not understanding the question correctly, if not could you provide details on exactly what you are trying to achieve please?

Hi Kirstin,

Event Espresso has never had a custom form builder as such, though you can change the position of the questions within the registration form if that is what you mean?

In order to change the structure/order of the events themselves (e.g. move the description) you would need to create a custom template for it.

This page provides a basic overview, though you may require a developer if you have never modified template files before: https://eventespresso.com/2014/02/developers-corner-theming-event-espresso-4/

Hi Kirstin,

Thanks for the clarification.

I think what your referring to (and please correct me if I am wrong) is the “There is nothing in your event queue” message that appears?

If so, please update to the latest version of EE4 (4.6.25) which will fix this for you.

The description display below the ticket selector was how we designed it to work.

You can add the following code to your themes functions file or a site specific plugin to move the description above the ticket selector: https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/1151c89082ccb5c0b478

Site specific plugin guide: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-site-specific-plugin-wordpress-site/

Let me know if you need clarification or have any further questions regarding this.

Hi,

I see the error, did you add all the code from Josh’s gist to the functions file/site specific plugin? Screenshot: http://take.ms/ngacD

Sorry, I wasn’t aware you needed the word Venue removing. In the Event Espresso > General Settings > Templates tab, you can turn off the venue details in full by changing Display Venue Details to No.

If you just want the VENUE: LEISURE RINKS bit removed but keep the rest of the venue data, then you can hide it with some CSS:

.espresso-venue-dv h4 {display: none; }

That CSS can be added to your themes style.css, though in order to preserve the CSS through theme updates we recommend adding it to either: a child themes style.css, your themes CSS options if it has any, or a plugin such as My Custom CSS.

Also, did you update to the latest version?

Hi, the function that you shared only changes the default events slug in the URL to classes. It does not change any other areas of Event Espresso.

This sample code snippet can be added to your site specific plugin to change the order:

https://gist.github.com/lorenzocaum/a33405557a2a065779ea

Any existing coding that has been added should be removed prior to adding the one above. The order will then become:

event image, event description, ticket selector, datetime

The custom function below will change the messaging from events to classes:

function ee_custom_messaging_events_classes( $translated, $original, $domain ) {
    $strings = array(
        'Event Dates' => 'Class Dates',
        'Event Location' => 'Class Location',
       );

    if ( isset( $strings[$original] ) ) {
        $translations = get_translations_for_domain( $domain );
        $translated = $translations->translate( $strings[$original] );
    }
 
    return $translated;
}
 
add_filter( 'gettext', 'ee_custom_messaging_events_classes', 10, 3 );

Note that this will only change those specific areas since a gettext filter works by looking for an exact match. It can also be added to your site specific plugin.

Hi Kirstin, we’ve worked through several questions in this support post. I’ll share feedback on your new questions here. If you have any additional questions that are new, please open new support posts in our support forums:

https://eventespresso.com/support/forums/

Event Espresso will show all events by default in the events listing page. Expired datetimes are currently hidden as they become expired.

A heading can be added but that will require working with templates. Are you comfortable with using an SFTP or FTP client such as FileZilla or Cyberduck?

Replace the most recent function that I shared in my earlier reply with this:

function ee_custom_messaging_events_classes( $translated, $original, $domain ) {
    $strings = array(
        'Event Dates' => 'Class Dates',
        'Event Location' => 'Class Location',
        'Select a Venue' => 'Select a Location',
       );
 
    if ( isset( $strings[$original] ) ) {
        $translations = get_translations_for_domain( $domain );
        $translated = $translations->translate( $strings[$original] );
    }
  
    return $translated;
}
  
add_filter( 'gettext', 'ee_custom_messaging_events_classes', 10, 3 );

The difference here is that the new entry has an addition to adjust the messaging on the calendar dropdown.

Thanks

Alright, go ahead and setup the starter templates by following this tutorial:

https://gist.github.com/lorenzocaum/16aac08f099d7c154f04

Let us know when they are in place.

That is strange. Try removing it altogether from your theme’s functions.php file and saving changes.

Hi, can you post a copy of your theme as a zip file?

You can upload to a service like Tinygrab or Getcloudapp and then link to it here.

That will help us resolve this issue for you.

Hi, the theme was fairly large in size at 23MB but I see it has some bundled functionality for an ecommerce store.

Go to theme options –> Blog layout. Then scroll down and look for sidebar position:

Select the option as shown above and save changes.

You should then see a sidebar on your event pages:
