In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Placing events on homepageShort answer: no
You can use the widget or cook something up using Template Tags – see https://tri.be/support/documentation/

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] There are no upcoming events in the widget???The first has Naredni Sajmovi as the header, the second doesn’t. That suggests to me that the widgets are different and that the first has some modifications that don’t work
What happens if you use the second widget alone?
And what happens if you use the TwentyTwelve theme?

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] End DateOne way would be to compare the two dates using PHP and using an IF statement
So If startdate=enddate; display nothing; otherwise display enddate
Syntax is here:
https://www.w3schools.com/php/php_if_else.aspThe other way would be to use the tribe_is_multiday value to switch on & off the second date
The PHP for the list is in
wordpress/wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/list.phpThe best way to edit it is to copy list.php to a new folder “events” here:
wordpress/wp-content/themes/your-theme-name/events/list.phpThat is an override location: edit the PHP there and not in the original location

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Today's event showing in past eventsMost problems like this seem to be theme conflicts. Does it work OK with TwentyTwelve?
Post up your URL so we can take a look

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] End DateYou can do this by editing the code and using display:none in the CSS for the end date
It won’t look so clever on multi-day events: you can code a way round this if you want to

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] No page available for /events/I’d do this:
* post up your URL so we can see the problem
* let us know what version of WP & TEC you are using and what theme
* test using the TwentyTwelve theme
* resave your permalinksNick Froome

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Calendar showing, but not individual event pageI think the problem will be a conflict with your theme. The link URLs in your calendar look right but I suspect they don’t return any data from The Events Calendar when you use them. So something else is hijacking the request
If your theme uses /events/ and /event/ then changing the slug used by The Events Calendar might be worth a try as a workaround

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Buttons overlapping calendarAs you have it the calendar isn’t wide enough to display the dates & buttons in a line. You’ll have to make the calendar wider or push the buttons lower (or higher) using CSS

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Where is Upcoming Events Widget?The code is in wordpress > wp-content > plugins > the-events-calendar > views > events-list-load-widget-display.php
Install it by dragging the widget to a sidebar

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Coming events promotional toolsI built pretty much exactly what you are suggesting about eight years ago. It searched my Filemaker events database for events over the next seven days, formatted them into a list of events title header, short description with date & time plus an HTML link
You could do this with TEC using a timed script (CRON job) to pull the events out and dump them into a pre-formatted HTML email with all the links & preview images in place
It would be a fair amount of work to setup the HTML email but the weekly script & finding that week’s events would not be too tough if you’re handy with scripting
I stored an ISO week number for each event so I didn’t need to calculate dates all the time. So I could search for events starting in, or still on during, week 45, etc. I used a global “fudge factor” I would change each year to set the start of the week number correctly. Apart from changing that annually the setup was very simple

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Calendar appears as a Blog entryTim
It’s not clear to me from your description and a look at your site what the issue is
You do have a few strange links in your menu bar, though, with one going to a different URL which then redirects back to your site. Take a look at the “classes” link

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Multiple Instances of CalendarI think it isn’t possible. But it is possible to have one calendar with multiple categories and I am sure it will be possible to display one category on one page and the other on a separate page

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Event page creates unwanted sitemap and stuffFor item 1 you need to look at the template you are using for events. The “stuff” is your stuff, not TEC stuff
For 2 look at the CSS – all alignment issues are down to the interaction of various bits of CSS
If a sidebar has been pushed to the foot of the page look at “clear” entries in the CSS

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Event times – only want start, not endRemoving end date and end time is easy – just remove them in the code or set them to not display using CSS
Listing multiple events under one date will be a bit harder, I think, but it’s probably been done already and there may be code available to do it
You’ll get faster support via the forum for TEC Pro users if you buy a licence
