Change all instances of 'Events' to 'Something' – Solution has backend side-effect

[yearntolearn]

The solution provided here https://theeventscalendar.com/support/documentation/changing-the-word-events-to-something-else/ Has a strange side effect that renders the WP-backend dysfunctional.

While solving the problem of replacing the “event/s” instances with another word, it also seems to remove the Published | Drafts | Deleted tabs from the pages, posts, event overview pages in the WP backend.

Hello,

Sorry for the issues when attempting to change the text.

I just copied the code from that tutorial into my site and I was not able to replicate the issue you are having.

Is it possible you could provide a link to a pastebin or gist with your coding in it and I can try it out and see if I get the same issue you are having.

I ask for the coding in either of those two services as it does not come across very well here when you paste it into the reply.

Let me know and we can go from there.

Thanks

This was working in earlier versions combinations of ECP & Enfold. i.e 3.7ECP and Enfold 2.9.x The upgrade to the latest versions broke things and it’s damn hard to work out what to do.
It appears that this issue may be related to these threads… Any ideas on a workaround?

Sorry for the continued conflict here. I am afraid I do not have a work around. I looked at the topic on their site and Barry’s comments too on the other ticket.

I think if you comment out this line in your theme that should fix the issue: (if I read this reply right: http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-3-0-and-tribe-events-calendar-3-8/#post-329763)

require_once( 'config-events-calendar/config.php' ); //compatibility with the Events Calendar plugin

If not, you could downgrade to Version 3.7 in the meantime and see if something can be worked out.

Let me know if commenting out that line helps anything out and we can go from there.

Thanks

Since I haven’t heard back from you here, I’m going to go ahead and close out this thread. Feel free to start a new thread if you have further issues. Thanks! 🙂
