Update on Full Screen Editor Functionality

Hello @jim5471, thanks for reaching out to us. We’re currently working on the incompatibilities still with FSE.

That being said, I am not sure about the specifics, but I’d ask the team in regard to this if they could give more information about this. I’d get back to you as soon as I know more.

Have a great day, Jim.

I have now got the single event page working on the TwentyTwentyTwo theme but it needs a work-around.

First create an “events-archive.html” file in the [your-theme]/templates directory
with this content

<!-- wp:template-part {"slug":"header","tagName":"header"} /-->
<!-- wp:tribe/archive-events /-->
<!-- wp:template-part {"slug":"footer","tagName":"footer"} /-->

Then on the event edit page change the Event template from “default” to “events-archive”.

NOTE: The “Events Archive” template in the list does not work.

This work-around is not ideal and the developers have some more work to get everything working properly.

Hi @jim5471, I appreciate you taking the time to share this workaround here.

I’ve just heard back from our team. We do have basic compatibility with FSE Theme for the views and single events. However, there’s a bug right now, and I have already added your case to it.

I cannot provide an exact date or time estimate for when this bug will be fixed, but you’ll be notified when there are any updates.

We appreciate your patience and look forward to helping you solve this. If you have other concerns or issues you need help with, please create another ticket, as it helps us track different issues.

Again, thank you for your patience.

Best,
Abz

Hi there @jim5471

Wanted to let you know that we’ve released a plugin update that includes a fix for this issue.

Can you please update our plugins on your site and check to see if you still have the issue you reported?

Thanks and best regards,

Marho

UPDATE [5.16.1.1] 2022-06-15 Fix – correct issues with template paths when using FSE. [TEC-4401]

Sorry to say this FSE update has the same problem – the single event template is not being picked up.

The “Event Archive” template shows in the template list on the event edit page but does not appear on the Editor Templates page.

Also the “Event Archive” template is not auto selected on the event edit page. This is another thing that needs fixing.

The previous work-around still works.

Hi @jim5471, thanks for getting back to us and testing the updates. Sorry to hear about this. I suspect it might be caching; if you have third-party plugins or server-side caching, including browser, kindly clear them and see if that makes a difference.

Please let us know and we’d be glad to help you out further.

Best,
Abz

Hi @abz I am sure caching isn’t the problem and have tried turning off all other plugins.

One interesting thing I have found whilst debugging.

On most of the website pages the “get_block_templates()” function returns “array (13)” with the last entry as the TEC template – as you would expect.

But when you go to a single event page “get_block_templates()” returns “array (12)” <- the TEC template is missing.

One other thing that I have noticed…

When editing an event – the “Events Archive” template can be selected and the page published.

But when the page is refreshed or on the next visit then the “Default” template is shown.

This means that the template setting isn’t stored and maybe never actually selected.

Hi @jim5471, with the recent updates v6.0.x.x does the issue still persist? To be safe, we’d recommend conducting tests and updates on a Staging Server. Also, please keep a working backup of your website.

Please do let me know. Have a great week ahead.

Cheers,

Hi @jim5471

This thread has been inactive for a while, so we’ll go ahead and mark it Resolved. Please open a new thread if any other questions arise, and we’d be happy to help.

Hey there,
?
I would like to provide an update regarding the FSE incompatibility problem.
?
This issue occurs when events are created using the Classic Editor while using a site editor theme. To avoid this problem, it’s better to use the Block Editor for events with a site editor theme.
?
By using the Block Editor to create events, they will be displayed within a Site Editor theme without any issues.
?
If you have further questions about this, please let me know.
?
Kind regards,
Jean
