Modern Events Calendar Support

[co50]

Who are we supposed to contact for Modern Events Calendar Support? I had some questions and wasn’t sure who to send them to:

1. The “Modern” single page layout puts the title of the event way down towards the bottom, which makes no sense. Are you [the author] aware of this and any plans to organize the mobile phone layout in the optimal order?

2. When adding to the hourly schedule, what about multi-day events? There is no date separator or any way to distinguish times for different dates. Were you [the author] aware of this? Any plans to complete this functionality?

3. On the desktop layout the right sidebar goes very deep but the main content area leaves a lot of white space because of this. We wanted to add the shortcode for a 3rd party agenda calendar (due to issues in #2 above). What’s the easiest way to do this? Can’t edit the template because that would hardcode a single agenda into the page. Basically is there way to sneak HTML code in at the bottom of the main content on a per event basis?

Thanks.

Hi @co50

I’m checking these issues and for the first one, I wonder if you are having a different look on mobile devices than that represented on the plugin demo page?

http://webnus.biz/plugins/modern-events-calendar/events/how-to-turn-negotiations-into-success/

For the second one, I believe this is a feature request which you can mention in a comment on the plugin page on Codecnayon (once the plugin is back again because it’s not available now):
https://codecanyon.net/item/modern-events-calendar-responsive-event-scheduler-booking-for-wordpress/17731780

For the third one, you could make use of this tutorial:

How to Add Signature or Ads after Post Content in WordPress

I’m sure using the conditional tag is_singular( 'mec-events' ) would be helpful in this case, when using “Method 2” in the tutorial link above.

Thanks.

Alright Alaa - I give your response a 4 out of 10. Not awful, but could be better…

1 - Nope, same look on my event as the demo. If you checked the demo in phone width, you’d notice the problem I reported. Title is pushed way down. Responsive elements do not stack in an optimal order. Kind of just thrown together. There is no bug here, it’s the way they intended…it just makes no sense.

2 - OK, cool. Can’t really talk to the author with their product gone from CC.

3 - That solution won’t work, because it hardcodes a single shortcode. If you read what I wrote, can’t do it that way. Must be on an event basis. Anyway, we found a lot easier way to do it. The main event description is the last thing on the main content, if you remove the counter module, which is just fluff. So the shortcode can just be added to the end of the event description and it accomplishes this goal.

Hello There,

Thanks for updating in!

1.) If you are using the Modern Style for the “Single Event Style” option (just like the demo), then the the title will be push down to the bottom because the sidebar gets displayed first. This is how the creators designed the single event page. If you want to prevent this from happening, please add this JS code in the Theme Options > Global JS (http://prntscr.com/evswzb)

(function($) {
  $('.mec-single-event .col-md-8').insertBefore( $('.mec-single-event .col-md-4') );
})(jQuery);

Now this would change the position of the sidebar to the right side. When you view the page in smaller screens, the title is now being displayed first compared to the previous one.

And if ever you still want to have the same sidebar position in larger screens, the sidebar being on the left and the event content on the right side, simply add the following CSS code in the X > Theme Options > Global CSS (http://prntscr.com/evui3r)

@media(min-width: 980px){
    .mec-single-event .col-md-8 {
        float: right;
    }

    .mec-single-event .col-md-4 {
        float: left;
    }
}

2.) They have an issue with ThemeForest which is why they are no longer in the site. We have communicated with them and they assure us that the will be back in the site as soon as they settle the issue.

3.) If you apply the suggested solution in #1, you should be able to resolve this.

Please let us know how it goes.
