 * Using v.3.4.1 of the events calendar, sidebars are missing on calendar and single
   events pages.
 * Using pagelines pro, but it also happens when switching to default wordpress 
   theme 2014.

 * When you switch to a default WordPress theme, what is the template setting in
   _Events → Settings → Display_ (can you try using the Default Page Template, if
   you haven’t already done so) – does that resolve things for you?

 * The template is already the Default Page Template, but it doesn’t fix the issue.

 * OK. Certainly if I use Twenty Fourteen and the Default Page Template I can see
   the left hand sidebar just fine, in month view and for single events.
 * Perhaps you can share a URL so we can see this problem?

 * Please see this page: [http://mh.btmm-dev.com/events/](http://mh.btmm-dev.com/events/)
 * It should be showing a default set of widgets in the main sidebar.

 * I have also now deactivated all plugins bar this one but the issue persists.

 * OK, looks like you have since changed back to PageLines. That’s a commercial 
   theme and, I’m afraid, not one we can offer too much help with here.
 * I do know that [over on the PRO forum](http://tri.be/support/forums/forum/events/events-calendar-pro/)
   we helped someone using PageLines and the only issue with sidebars on event pages
   was a formatting/CSS issue – so it definitely ought to be possible.

 * I have set up a test site for this ([http://testing.squarestarmedia.com/events-calendar/?post_type=tribe_events](http://testing.squarestarmedia.com/events-calendar/?post_type=tribe_events)).
   There’s a brand new installation of wordpress using only the 2014 theme and the
   problem is there immediately after activation. No changes in settings.
 * Please note that this has been the case with every installation I have tried 
   with the events calendar, no matter the theme.
 * Another issue that all these installations have had in common is that wordpress
   thinks the page is a 404 – the body class always has error404 added. You can 
   see it at the above address.

 * Permalinks updated, so the test page is here now: [http://testing.squarestarmedia.com/events-calendar/events/](http://testing.squarestarmedia.com/events-calendar/events/)

 * OK, it looks though like you are using the Default Events Template. However, 
   can I ask you to try using the Default Page Template?

 * You can find this setting in _Events → Settings → Display._
 * Does that help?

 * Yes, that helps thanks – you can see the sidebars at the test page now.
 * WordPress still uses the error404 template though. While this isn’t a problem
   on the 2014 theme, it is on others (specifically Pagelines, which I’m hoping 
   to ultimately get set up correctly).
 * However, that’s kind of a different issue, so I’ll mark this resolved and open
   a new support request.

 * Great, glad we got this one solved!
