Hello,

I have recently installed the ‘The Events Calendar’ plugin. On this page of my site I can not get the sidebar templates to work (either ‘default template’ or ‘content left, sidebar right’):
http://rideexpeditions.com/motorcycle-tours-2/

Every time I switch to either of these templates the page shows up blank. I’ve attached a screenshot of how it looks when I use one of these templates.

Apologies for asking you guys the question! I’ve contacted the plugin support a few times and they tell me it’s a theme issue 🙁

If you could give me any pointers it would be very much appreciated.

Cheers

Toby

Hey Toby,

Thanks for writing in! It looks like you’re using an old version of Cornerstone plugin. Please update your theme and plugins to the latest versions to avoid conflicts. You can find the latest version numbers here: (http://theme.co/changelog/) Then you can compare them to what’s installed on your site.

If you find anything to be out of date, you can review our update guide.

Let us know how this goes!

[Toby]

Thanks for the reply. I have just updated everything and I still have the same problem.

Cheers

Hello Toby,

Upon checking, this page:http://rideexpeditions.com/motorcycle-tours-2/ is an archive page. To show sidebar on archive page, please go to Appearance > Customize > Layout and Design > Content Layout : Choose Content Left, Sidebar Right. For pages, that settings should also be set for Page templates with sidebar to work.

Hope this helps.

[Toby]

Thanks Lely… I’ve just checked the steps you described and my layout is already set to ‘Content Left, Sidebar Right’.

Hi Toby,

To add sidebar to that page, you can add this in your child theme’s functions.php file.

function add_my_sidebar($contents) {
  
  if ( is_page_template('tribe-events-page-template') ) {
      $contents = 'content-sidebar';
  }
  
  return $contents;
}

add_filter('x_option_x_layout_content', 'add_my_sidebar');

Hope that helps.

Thanks Paul, I’ve added the code but it doesn’t seem to have changed anything.

Hello There,

Sorry if it didn’t work out. Please have it updated and use this instead:

function add_my_sidebar($contents) {
  
  if ( is_post_type_archive('tribe_events') ) {
      $contents = 'content-sidebar';
  }
  
  return $contents;
}

add_filter('x_option_x_layout_content', 'add_my_sidebar');

We would loved to know if this has work for you. Thank you.

[Toby]

Thanks Rue. I’ve changed the code and I still have the same problem.

Cheers

Hello Toby,

Unfortunately, I can’t login at the moment. On my first try to login, I got this error:
ERROR: This account has been locked because of too many failed login attempts. You may try again in 17 hours.

Hi Toby,

The page is generate by the events calendar plugin.

Regretfully, we cannot provide support for third party plugins or scripts as our support policy in the sidebar states due to the fact that there is simply no way to account for all of the potential variables at play when using another developer’s plugin or script. Because of this, any questions you have regarding setup, integration, or troubleshooting any piece of functionality that is not native to X will need to be directed to the original developer.

This might help – https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/

Thank you for your understanding.
