Another Event Calendar Override Request for Help

Thank you Ismael. You wrote:

This is an issue with the updated calendar designs in the plugin. To fix the issue temporarily, you can either disable the said option (Use updated calendar designs) from the Events > Settings > Display (tab) or override the default-template.php file in the child theme.

Are you suggesting the fix is to actually use the new calendar designs, or not to use these? I want to clarify that I never enabled the updated calendar designs in the first place, and as part of my troubleshooting I actually rolled back TEC to the last 4.x version prior to version 5, before they refactored all of their templates. I am still experiencing the issue which is why I am stumped.

Alright, thank you Ismael. I’ll do some further investigating to see if I can make it work using the information referenced in the other threads. You can probably close this for now.

Hi Rikard.

I’m afraid I’m back. I am still not having success getting the Event Calendar single event view and default template override to work, even after working through the discussion in the linked threads–which basically amounted to using the same method to override the default designs that I have been using all along.

First, I have confirmed that the new calendar designs in TEC are disabled. (There have never been enabled on my site.)

The problem seems to be that the following code, which has been in the functions.php of my Enfold Child theme for a long time, no longer seems to work:

/************************************************************* 
 * Code supplied by Kriesi to override mods to The Event Calendar plug in single event PHP
 */
 
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)
{
    $redirect = array('default-template.php', 'single-event.php');
    if(in_array($template, $redirect))
    {
        //$file = get_stylesheet_directory() . "/tribe-events/views/".$template;
        $file = get_stylesheet_directory() . "/tribe/events/v2/".$template;
    }

    return $file;
}

No matter which directory path I point to for the overriden files, the theme continues to execute its default custom templates in /enfold/config-events-calendar/views.

I am stuck, because I cannot see what I am doing wrong–this code has worked reliably in the past.

Any further help would be appreciated.
