Hi,

Please test this: navigate to Settings => Permalink Settings => Common Settings please change to “Plain” and then re-test your tag archive page.

Does that then show the menu?

Nope. See attached. Not only does the top menu disappear but the stuff in the hamburger/slide-out menu also doesn’t show.

Normally set to what is in the capture1.jpg file, attached.

Thanks
Chuck

Hi,

If I set your permalinks to “Plain”, the menu shows as below.

I’ll report this back to the team for further investigation.

Thanks,
David.

ok i’m not sure what exactly it is you’re claiming you did. If i set my permalinks to be plain I still don’t see a menu when i click on one of the tags. See capture.jpg.

Hi Chuck,

Apologies for the delay on this frustrating issue, currently I am not yet able to provide a fix for this. I will need to ask my colleague Ed (lead dev) to help take a closer look.

On the tag archives page, within our Custom Walker class class sf_mega_menu_walker extends Walker_Nav_Menu the global $wp_query; is returning nothing. Do you have a support ticket open with Tribe Events also? Could you report that back to them?

Happy to work with them to resolve this.

– David.

I was working with them but they pretty much waved off saying they don’t offer support on non-standard themes. Just exactly how lame is that? The theme is probably the first or second thing you change on a wordpress site. Anyway I kept pushing it and they looked a little deeper and found this

I saw Line 198 of /wp-content/themes/uplift/swift-framework/core/sf-sidebars.php is

if ( class_exists( 'TribeEvents' ) ) {
 which throws a WP_DEBUG message that says this has been deprecated since version 3.10 and that Tribe__Events__Main should be used instead.

Therefore, since the theme isn’t updated for our plugins, this is as far as we can go helping toward this issue. Hopefully your theme author/support can assist further here.

I actually changed my local copy of that file so that the line read

if ( class_exists( 'Tribe__Events__Main' ) ) {

But it didn’t help any. I believe the problem is far deeper than something that simple.

They closed the support ticket at that point. Not super happy with that. There is something getting in the way between the theme and the plugin but its beyond me as to what. Probably going to need a bigger stick to get the Modern Tribe folks to move on it if it’s something they’re doing “wrong” or at least “strange”. Hopefully Ed can find that big stick we can beat them with.

Hi Chuck,

I will check with Ed and see what we can do.
