Hi there,

I've been using Toolset for over six years now, but I'm brand new to Events Manager (https://wordpress.org/plugins/events-manager/).

I'm trying create a view to display the post title (and some other fields) of a couple of post types: Pages, a custom post type named Secondary Spotlights, and Events (created via Events Manager).

On my view, the title and an image are appearing correctly for Pages and Secondary Spotlights, but Events from Events Manager display several fields unrelated to the title and image. I'm attaching a screenshot for your reference. I don't know what's causing the behavior or how to turn it off, but I suspect it's a setting in Events Manager.

Can you offer any guidance?

Thank you.

Saul

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

It must be a setting from Events Manager or I'm not sure how you build your view and what you added to your view's output. View should output only the fields that is added to view's Loop Editor.

Do you see those fields added to your view's loop editor? If no:
Then the setting must be from Events Manager or related and you will have to contact the Event Manager support in that case to know what could be the possible setting you will have to deal with to turn off such unwanted fields display.

Minesh,

Thanks for your reply. I ended up needing to copy a template file to my theme and modify it, but I'm wondering why this was necessary. In other words, the output in the Loop Editor was being overridden; do you know why that happened?

I'm not sure yet its the issue from theme or plugin or any other.

When you create a content template using Toolset - it will override the body part (post content) as Toolset uses the the_content() function to override the body part. If your theme is using different then the_content() function then you will have to edit your theme's template and modify it as required.

But - Please check the following Doc:

Minesh,

Thanks for your response. I read the documentation on the link you shared, and after enabling theme debugging, Views did not output the name of any function.

I'm going to stop pursuing this since I found a work-around.

Thanks for your help!
