Hi I installed Events Calendar and the calendar comes up on a full page. I am trying to get a sidebar to appear on the page with the Calendar in the middle and then a sidebar for widgets. Can you tell me how to accomplish this?

Hey Joealto,

Can you give us temporary admin access to your website in the private content box below, so that we can have a closer look.

Best regards,
Victoria

Hi Victoria,

Here is the info, and if you click on the events tab you will get to the calendar and see where I would like a sidebar.

Hi Joe,

Please add following code to Functions.php file of your child theme in Appearance > Editor
```
add_action('after_setup_theme', function() {
	if(is_child_theme()) remove_action('tribe_events_template', 'avia_events_tempalte_paths', 10, 2);
});

add_action('tribe_events_template', 'avia_events_template_paths_mod', 10, 2);
function avia_events_template_paths_mod($file, $template)
{
	$redirect = array('default-template.php');
	if(in_array($template, $redirect))
	{
		$file = get_stylesheet_directory() . "/tribe-events/views/".$template;
	}

	return $file;
}
```
and then create /tribe-events/views folders inside your child theme and copy enfold/config-events-calendar/views/default-template.php file inside it and then copy nfold/config-events-calendar/views/single-event.php file to /tribe-events folder on your child theme, edit single-event.php file and add following to the very bottom of the file
```
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
```
and finally add following code to Quick CSS in Enfold theme options under General Styling tab
```
#tribe-events-content {
    width: 70%;
    float: left;
}
```

Hi Joealto,

You need to copy this file enfold/config-events-calendar/views/default-template.php to the folder you created and and add
```
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
```
there as well.

If you need further assistance please let us know.

Hi, I did that and the sidebar info is at the bottom of the page, where on the default-template am I supposed to put <?php get_sidebar(); ?> And once I finally get the sidebar to appear how do I pic a custom sidebar for that page?

Would it help if you have FTP info? Or can you help from the dashboard?

Thanks
Joe

Hi,

You should be able to get a custom sidebar by adding its name to the function like so:
```
<?php get_sidebar('your-sidebar'); ?>
```

Can you tell me where to put that code? And also if you look at the link I sent you you can see the sidebar is at the bottom of the page below the footer. On the default-template.php where do I put <?php get_sidebar(‘your-sidebar’); ?> so the sidebar shows up in the sidebar area not at the the bottom of the page?

I did exactly what you said. I created a sidebar called calendar then put <?php get_sidebar(‘calendar’); ?> in the default-template and still nothing. What am I doing wrong? I moved the <?php get_sidebar(‘calendar’); ?> to above the footer but it still does not appear in the sidebar nor is it pulling the sidebar called calendar. Can you please help?

I have been playing with this for hours and I scouring the web and I found this link to your support forums, it addresses the problem I am having. Can you please read this and let me know where the Plugin Additions tab of Advanced Layout Builder is?? Here is the link that may be helpful: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-and-the-events-calendar/

Hi,
I saw that you had a sidebar floating at the bottom of your events page so I added this to your quick css:
```
@media only screen and (min-width: 770px) { 
.tribe-events-page-template .sidebar {
    float: right!important; 
    width: 30%!important; 
    padding-top: 0!important; 
    top: -870px!important; 
}}
@media only screen and (max-width: 769px) { 
.tribe-events-page-template .sidebar {
    float: right!important; 
    width: 30%!important; 
    padding-top: 0!important; 
    top: -520px!important; 
}}
```

Hi I see that but the sidebar is still at the bottom, it may be because when I edited the php file i was not told where to put the <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

I am trying to get a sidebar next to the calendar and I am also trying to figure out how to set a custom sidebar widget for that sidebar next to the calendar. If you read over this thread you will see what the problem is and what I was recommended to do. It didn’t really work, I need a sidebar next to the calendar and I need to be able to put a custom widget in it. Can you please help me with that??

Hi,

You can try using this plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/ and add following condition to display your widget
```
tribe_is_event() && is_single()
```
and to hide rest of the widgets on that pages, please use
```
!tribe_is_event()
```

PLEASE HELP!!!

For days I have been trying to get someone to help me. What I have is a relatively easy concept and yet no one seems to be bothering to help me. I bought your theme because you claim to be easy to work it and have great support. So far neither are true. I have about 50 sites build with Avada and decided to give Enfold a try since you touted such ease and support. So far I am getting nowhere. Will someone please help me or I am going to need to revert back to using Avada. I was hoping to put Enfold into my line up and start using it as an alternative but I can’t even get simple support.

Goal… Have sidebar appear on Events page next to Events Calendar.

1.) How do I get the sidebar NEXT TO the calendar and nota at the bottom of the page? I was given a template customization walk though and it worked, sort of. But the sidebar is now A THE BOTTOM OF PAGE. How do I get it where it ought be which is in the sidebar section of the page?

2.) How do I control what widgets appear in the sidebar for this page?

I have been working this for a week and have not gotten anywhere,. Can you PLEASE HELP?

Here is a link to the page, you will see it is not at all how it should be, and please take a few minutes to read over the suggestions I have been given abover as now I am running in a circle. I paid for the theme and for a full year of support, can someone please help me??
http://northshore.motomotodesigns.com/events/

Here is a page built with Avada and it displays what I want to achieve. It was a simple setting already built into the theme. If you don’t have this setting and aren’t going to, at least help me figure this out or please return my money and tell me to continue with Avada. http://selectivemutismcenter.org/events/

Thanks You.

Hi,

I’m very sorry for the confusion. In the defaults-template.php file, look for this code around line 30:
```
tribe_get_view();
```
Below, add this code:
```
	ob_start();
	dynamic_sidebar('calendar');
	$sidebar = ob_get_clean();

	$output  = '<aside class="sidebar sidebar_right alpha units" role="complementary" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/WPSideBar">';
	$output .= '<div class="inner_sidebar extralight-border">';
	$output .= $sidebar;
	$output .=  '</div></div>';
        echo $output;
```
In the Quick CSS field, use this:
```
.template-event-page #tribe-events-content-wrapper {
    width: 70%;
    float: left;
    margin-right: 5%;
}
```
Another workaround is by adding the following hook in the functions.php file. They are basically the same, the only advantage is that you don’t have to modify the template files.
```
add_action( 'tribe_events_after_view', 'tribe_events_after_view_sidebar' );
function tribe_events_after_view_sidebar() {
	ob_start();
	dynamic_sidebar('calendar');
	$sidebar = ob_get_clean();

	$output  = '<aside class="sidebar sidebar_right alpha units" role="complementary" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/WPSideBar">';
	$output .= '<div class="inner_sidebar extralight-border">';
	$output .= $sidebar;
	$output .=  '</div></div>';
	echo $output;
}
```
Add the same css code. Insert the widgets in the Appearance > Widgets > calendar widget area.

Best regards,
Ismael

Ismael, THANK YOU! It worked and I now have a page that has the calendar and a sidebar. I appreciate your help and support. The author of the calendar plug in wanted to know the fix as well so I am going to point her to this thread as she was unsure of the integration. Perhaps in the future integrating this, or another calendar plugin to work easier might be beneficial to some users. Once I finish development and if all goes smoothly from here this will be one of the themes I make my go to theme as other than this issue I think it is one of the nicer looking themes. I do have some other styling questions but will as when I am done if I can’t sort them. Again I thank you for your assistance.

Hi, So I think I spoke too soon on this topic. The Events page is containing the calendar and sidebar as it should, BUT… if you advance to the next month to see the next month’s calendar all of a sudden the sidebar is being displayed BELOW the calendar. And if you advance yet another month the sidebar is duplicated yet again. I am close to launching the site the my client is freaking out, can you please help me resolve this correctly so its not an ongoing issue?

You can view the problem here… just click to the see the next months calendar ad scroll down and you will see the sidebar appearing at the bottom of the page. http://northshore.motomotodesigns.com/events

A thought is to actually integrate this plugin into your theme. I like Enfold and have a few upcoming jobs that I would like to use in on but all of them requite the events calendar. Currently Avada incorporates it and has a sidebar option for the calendar page so one doesn’t have jump thought so many hoops just to get a calendar with a sidebar. That should be a standard option. I prefer Enfold to Avada as it is just a nicer working experience but this is a critical feature for some organizations and not having this flexibility makes it impossible to use Enfold. Please help me make Enfold the only theme I need.

Thanks
Joe

Hi Joe,

Have you made any changes on The Events Calendar related files?
Please try adding this code to the Quick CSS section under Enfold > General Styling or to your child theme’s style.css file:
```
#tribe-events-content-wrapper .sidebar {
    display: none!important;
}
```

Hi, no I haven’t made any changes to any files others then what I was guided through in above thread. But the code you sent me helped and solved the duplication of the sidebar showing up at the bottom of the page. It appears to function as it should. I really appreciate your help, this is exactly what I needed so now I can finish up and launch.

It may be helpful to edit down this thread and put this tutorial up on your site as a little walk through for people. I see this question asked a lot and its not that hard to accomplish with the right walk through. Your team did a great job sorting it out and it would be a shame not to publish the info that you folks came up with. Just a thought.

Thanks for your help and if this doesn’t have any more problems I think Enfold will really be the only theme I will need moving forward. Thanks again I appreciate the help!

Hi Joe,

Glad to hear that it worked and thanks for your feedback.

It should work correctly out of the box without needing to adjust codes. We will report the issue to our devs and they will look further into the issue and apply changes on theme files as necessary.

For your information, you can take a look at Enfold documentation here – http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/
And if there are features that you wish Enfold had, you can request them and vote the requested ones here – https://kriesi.at/support/enfold-feature-requests/
For any other questions or issues, feel free to post them here on the forum and we will gladly try to help you :)

Best regards,
Yigit
