how do i create custom template pages in Scribe?

I am using Events + on Scribe and the display single events page will not work with the theme. i have to set to plugin default but that shows the event’s listing totally outside the theme so there’s no navigation etc. how do i either make a new template page that i can select in events settings for the single event page, or, how do i otherwise make the silly thing work? lol thanks :slight_smile:

    Hello @Tracy Renee,

    I hope you are having a good day and thanks for the asking. :slight_smile:

    Let me go bit by bit to answer you question well. :slight_smile:

    how do i either make a new template page that i can select in events settings for the single event page

    This will be complex task and requires core plugin file editing so I suggest instead of this one lets try to find another solution. :slight_smile:

    By default with Scribe single event listing renders well. I've attached screenshot for your confirmation. As you can see in screenshot Navigation is also supported as breadcrumb. Do you want to change this look or want complete new look for single event listing ?

    Cheers,

    I’d like any look that actually works lol … right now, if i use anything other than default plugin version, i get nothing but a blank page. its giving me fits and I do not know why. the site where this all is is TerraLascivus.com. Also, one thing more, i haven’t upgraded the theme as the last site i upgraded upfront on, destroyed the entire site so bad i had to start over again, it like … totally corrupted it, so im afraid now lol. i’ll turn on your access to terralascivus.com for now so you can see whats going on. thanks.

    Hello again @Tracy Renee,

    Hope you are doing well and sorry for being late here.

    I can confirm blank page issue on your site but not able to replicate on my sandbox site. I’ve also conducted plugin conflict test and its showed me a green flag. :slight_smile:

    Can you try to deactivate you’ve enabled addons one by one ? Or is this problem was there with Events+ when there were no addon activated ? Can please clarify this to me ?

    And if you want to create new template which you can tweak according to your preference. You can do so by this way,

    #1) Go to Plugins template directory which is /default-templates/default/ and then copy file single-incsub_event.php.

    #2) Now paste copied file to your current active theme’s directory. But I suggest you create child theme of your current theme to preserve your changes in future. ( NOTE: When theme gets update it erases every changes you’ve made in its active root directory )

    #3) After this much you should have single-incsub_event.php file in your current active theme’s or its child theme’s directory.

    #4) Now you can see that plugin uses that file to render content by adding tiny heading on top of the file as ,

    <div id="primary">
    
<h1>Hello from theme's single event file </h1>
    
<div id="content" role="main">
    
.....

    I hope this helps you.

    Cheers,

    Milan Savaliya.
