Title: Grid Layout Problems Last modified: July 11, 2023 --- # Grid Layout Problems * Resolved [wardencenter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wardencenter/) * (@wardencenter) * [2 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/grid-layout-problems/) * Hello – WP 6.2.2, Theme Blocksy 1.8.94 1.) When using the shortcode [event_listing events_layout=”grid”] on a non-events page, it shows an empty page with just the events search bar at the top.2.) If I specify “grid” for the Archive Event View, the page defined in the settings as the event page does show as a grid, but the “Archive” page shows upcoming events, instead of past/archived events. * Is there a different shortcode I should use, and is there a setting I’m missing for the Archived events? - This topic was modified 2 years, 11 months ago by [wardencenter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wardencenter/).

You can use the shortcode generator. Kindly see the attached screenshot link for your reference.

Kindly verify the settings again.Feel free to contact us for any further assistance.Regards * Thread Starter [wardencenter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wardencenter/) * (@wardencenter) * [2 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/grid-layout-problems/#post-16889868) * Thank you – I believe there is confusion. * Question #1: Shortcode: **[event_listing events_layout=”grid”]** produces an empty page with just the events search bar at the top. Screenshot is here: [https://ibb.co/rt8MgL2](https://ibb.co/rt8MgL2) [](https://ibb.co/rt8MgL2)[](https://ibb.co/rt8MgL2)[](https://ibb.co/rt8MgL2) [](https://ibb.co/rt8MgL2)[](https://ibb.co/rt8MgL2) * [[[[[[Question #2: The word “Archive” refers to things “past”, as in historical records. Are you saying that the Setting “Archive Event View” is actually a setting for present and future events? * Thank you again. * Plugin Support [saadali2905](https://wordpress.org/support/users/saadali2905/) * (@saadali2905) * [2 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/grid-layout-problems/#post-16890069) * Hi Warden, 1. You have to define in the _shortcode_ if you want to see “upcoming events” or past events. 2. “Archive Event View” is showing past events. Kindly see the attached screenshots for your reference.

To show your fantastic event grid on any page, one just needs the shortcode provided on your wordpress plugin page (**[event_listing events_layout=”grid”]**), then resave permalinks and clear cache multiple times (took me three cache celarings– using WP Optimize) * Question #2: “Archive Event View” shows upcoming events on **my** site. Screenshot below. Please advise? Maybe I just need to show archived events with the shortcode you provided for “past” events? * **New question:** I have no shortcode generator link like the one in your screenshot. I have to use Classic Editor Plugin, fyi. My screen shot is below. Please advise? Or, perhaps there is a shortcode listing document I could use (I don’t mind reading). * Screenshots: [https://ibb.co/LJLJp2t](https://ibb.co/LJLJp2t)[https://ibb.co/zNrW1fH](https://ibb.co/zNrW1fH) * Plugin Support [saadali2905](https://wordpress.org/support/users/saadali2905/) * (@saadali2905) * [2 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/grid-layout-problems/#post-16890249) * Hi Warden, 1.
