Hi guys, can’t seem to get the venue and date/time info to show on the single event page. Here’s an example page:
http://shareing-careing.org/events/senior-information-workshop-jan-23-2016/
We are manually typing in all the details for now in the WordPress visual editor and I have a custom meta field that outputs to the byline area.
I have turned on all the options to output venue under Event Espress > Templates. And I have double-checked my CSS.
The date/time is showing on the main events page here:
http://shareing-careing.org/past-events/
But I cannot get it to display on the events page at all.
Thanks for your help!

Hi April,
It looks like you are using Thesis 2 which is not compatible with Event Espresso 4. That theme appears to function a little differently than a standard WordPress theme as it requires a separate integrator plugin (https://www.woothemes.com/products/woocommerce-thesis-integrator/) to work with WooCommerce which is another ecommerce platform. I’m not aware of other themes that require a separate integrator plugin like this.
I had a look at the past events page and there are events from 2015. Were you previously using a different theme?

No we’ve always used Thesis.
Is there a shortcode for the venue and date/time? I can put it manually into the Event template. That’s what I had to do with the [ESPRESSO_TICKET_SELECTOR] to get the ticket selector on the single event page.

It turns out there isn’t a shortcode for those. I’m afraid Event Espresso 4 isn’t compatible with Thesis 2 out of the box. It would involve doing some custom coding to work around the way Thesis 2’s templates load in the content that would normally appear with the majority of other WordPress themes.

Ok, I’m game. Found this forum posting.

Do you recommend this?

No I don’t because it looks like you’ll have to follow the steps under “Template – EVENT” for every event you make. I can recommend using Thesis’s hooks to make this happen. For example you can add something like this to a functions plugin:
function ee_thesis_hooks_example() {
if ( 'espresso_events' == get_post_type() ) {
espresso_get_template_part( 'content', 'espresso_events-tickets' );
espresso_get_template_part( 'content', 'espresso_events-datetimes' );
espresso_get_template_part( 'content', 'espresso_events-venues' );
}
}
add_action( 'thesis_hook_after_post', 'ee_thesis_hooks_example' );
You can add the above to a functions plugin then activate the plugin.
