In reply to: [Testimonials Widget] Can I make the testimonials loop?Hi Michael and thanks very much for your help with this.
Sorry for the late reply – the site has been migrated from development to live and I wanted to see if that helped but it seems to not rotate at all now.
One sidebar is on the page at
http://thecoachingroom.com.au/
with another sidebar (differing only in the addition of a php widget) on the page at
http://thecoachingroom.com.au/nlp.html
There are 41 testimonials in the system, all just an image linked to a URL. Rotation speed is set to 3. Happy to provide any other info that would be useful, and to purchase premium if that will resolve the issue.
Kind regards,

In reply to: [Testimonials Widget] Odd white line displaying underneath testimonial imageHi and thanks again for your help with this.
Perhaps because I am using a child theme, adding that to either the parent (twentyeleven) or child theme was not successful.
What did work to remove the underline in the end was
#main div#secondary.widget-area aside#testimonials_widget-2.widget div.testimonialswidget_testimonial {border-bottom: none;}I am still trying to get the widget on the non-404 pages to have the same vertical spacing as on the 404 page but haven’t worked that out yet …
Thanks so much for your help so far 🙂

In reply to: [Testimonials Widget] Odd white line displaying underneath testimonial imageHi Michael and thanks very much for following up. Yes, I’m still having some problems which must I think be related to css. It’s a bit harder to see now I’ve normalised the site colours a bit, but if you look here:
http://wordpress.thecoachingroom.com.au/wp/
You’ll see a gray line displaying beneath most of the images, across the top of the ‘share this with’ heading. It doesn’t appear below the empower image but there is no difference in the way the image is coded or called.
I’m also struggling a bit to control the widget spacing where a template other than my principal template is called, for example
http://wordpress.thecoachingroom.com.au/wp/events/nlp-practitioner-january-february-2013-sydney-1/
Thanks again for your concern,

In reply to: Templates for Events ManagerI am also interested in this – would like to specify template for the category list pages.
Thanks 🙂

In reply to: [TheThe Image Slider] Issues since moving to 3.5this worked for me too! (y) thanks very much jfordham 🙂
thank you – I have upgraded and will transfer this discussion to the pro forums.
Sorry, one more thing – I will probably upgrade to Pro anyway as I’d like to be able to process online payments. Is this the kind of thing the Pro support team could help with? (And will I lose all my events o_0?)
Sorry, I did not clarify before that removing the attribute did not work (see non-display under ‘meta-coach certification’ in the grey div at http://wordpress.thecoachingroom.com.au/wp/
The way the site is structured is that a php include is called within each page structure, in this case ss_about.php
then within that page’s included php file, other php includes are called, in this case the first one is sc_upcoming_coach_training.php
which in turn contains the markup calling the events_list
If you can help me resolve this, it would be great, but I still think it could be related to the categories not being ‘attached’ to the events in the GUI.
However, I have also attempted to use the code at
http://wordpress.thecoachingroom.com.au/wp/nlp.html
with mixed results. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
Thanks again
HI and thanks so much for your attention.
I’ve removed the attribute so the code is now
<?php echo do_shortcode('[events_list_grouped mode="monthly" orderby="event_start_date" scope="future" category="118"]'); ?>The thing I find really confusing is that in the Events Manager Categories GUI it does not see the events as belong to the category, although the events themselves show the appropriate category boxes checked.
either way, your help is appreciated.
Kind regards
HI and thanks very much for this.
The pages now use:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[events_list_grouped mode="monthly" orderby="event_start_date" scope="future" category="118" attribute date_format="F Y"]'); ?>which looks promising but I am now having problems with categories which I will post separately.
Kind regards
thanks very much for your help with this – a more experienced php person gave me a hand and it is just what I need.
Hi again,
I have updated EM to 5.3.2.1 but the problem persists. It’s particularly frustrating because it was working to begin with 😐
My understanding of EM is that it should be able to display using shortcode in a .php file.
Any chance someone with more smarts than me can take a look at the grey box on the right of the content area on
http://wordpress.thecoachingroom.com.au/wp/
and let me know where I’m getting it wrong?
Thanks so much
Hi again and thanks for your responses. Thanks for the suggestions about sidebar PHP – I have used this in a widget elsewhere and it works really well.
My bad, I used the wrong terminology. The ‘sidebar’ isn’t the wordpress sidebar, it’s another php file which is pulled in with an include. More like a div for layout, adding a column to the right of the main content area but included just after the content div on the sidebar-page template.
<div id="primary"> <div id="content" role="main"> <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?> <?php get_template_part( 'content', 'page' ); ?> <?php comments_template( '', true ); ?> <?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?> </div><!-- #content --> <?php if (in_category('about')) { include ('ss_about.php'); } elseif (in_category('coach-training')) {etc, etc,
It was working before I recently upgraded both EM and WP, so I guess the next thing to try is reinstalling EM and see if it gets fixed up.
Hi agelonwl and thanks very much for your reply. I’m a newbie at PHP too, so I’m sorry about the level of the questions 😐
I am guessing that I’d add this to the theme functions.php file and that it doesn’t matter too much where I add it.
I’m guessing that the placeholder I’d put in my page/post is ‘my_em_bookeddate_placeholders’?
I’m not sure, though, whether I’d put the subsequent
$replace = “<img src=’…./2.png’ />”; etc, eg
$replace = "<img src='..../1.png' />"; } break; elseif ($space ==2){ $replace = "<img src='..../2.png' />"; } breakor after the
return $replace; }and I am ashamed to say that I’m not sure what the last line of code does and why it includes 1,3.
Thanks again for your time.
