Want to go live with EE4…. Turned out my only problem was the conflict with WP-Commerce….
Not sure why event list appears as so: https://www.policecombat.com/ee4/events/
Otherwise event pages look ok.
Please help me nail this, it’s been 2 months etc.

HI Jed,
You might have success with copying over some of the templates from the Arabica child theme. The files are located in event-espresso/templates/Espresso_Arabica_2014
Does that help?

You create a child theme and copy the templates into the child theme and activate it.

Tried creating child theme as instructed. Nav broke, and events were not linkable.
Then tried adding your CSS below our template CSS.
Regardless, dates do not show, Upcoming Dates and Times only show date tickets go on sale, and I would like to get rid of the About the Author block.
There is no calendar view with EE4???
Please advise asap. This is my 6th attempted install so far…..

Hi Kevin,
We’re working on a calendar port for Event Espresso 4. Does your theme allow for child themes?

Thanks again for response. I am pulling all nighter on this, so any help = greatly appreciated.
Because of EE4 probs we bought events calendar pro etc., and realized it does not handle multiple ‘tickets’. Then tried eventbright plugin and realized it goes to their external site. Then went back to EE4 and discovered wp-commerce plugin was what was ‘wrong’.
At this point I need to get this ‘done’. Here is where I am at: http://www.policecombat.net/events/
Problems here = no date display, jumbled description content and all details….
Clicking on a course, such as http://www.policecombat.net/events/integrated-use-of-force-tactics-in-extreme-close-quarters-l-o-c-k-u-p-soulis-shooting-systems-2/ …
Looks pretty good! Except no date display, header is duplicated as it is already up top, No need for ‘Upcoming Date(s) and Time(s)’ as it only shows date on sale, event location looks great! No need for Admin, post date, comments.
No need for ‘About The Author’.
No need for Related Posts, unless I can rename it and remove dates / comments.
Can you point me to these files?
Events calendar pro displays nice, but want EE$… http://www.policecombat.net/event/cardio/
Thanks in advance, any help would be awesome!

Am able to do basic text changes, such as “Event Details” within templates/Espresso_Arabica_2014, with no child theme….. Is that normal?
With that, I want to remove header but cannot find file, as well as About the Author and Upcoming Date(s) and Time(s)…..
Where do things live?

Hi there,
I think the way forward on this to make your customizations possible -and- make things work with your theme (this is because your theme is using a non-standard means to generate a post excerpt and stripping the html tags from the ticket selector) is to create a child theme, then copy everything over from inside the Espresso_Arabica_2014 folder into your child theme’s folder.

Did as instructed with child theme… http://www.policecombat.net/events/
Sure enough, event details show correctly, but entire page is broken. Any ideas?

Hi there,
You’ll likely need to make sure two of the templates that you copied over from Espresso_Arabica_2014 match the structure of your theme. If you open up single-espresso_events.php and archive-espresso_events.php you’ll see that the html is structured like this:
get_header();
?>
<section id="primary" class="content-area">
<div id="content" class="site-content" role="main">
<?php get_template_part( 'loop', 'espresso_events' ); ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</section><!-- #primary -->
<?php
get_sidebar( 'content' );
get_sidebar();
get_footer();
Your theme likely does get_header(), get_sidebar() and get_footer in its single and archive template, but it likely doesn’t have container divs with classes like #primary and #content. What you can do is swap in the container divs that match your theme’s single.php and archive.php into the two events templates.
