tribe_get_current_month_text() Not working on customized gridview.php

Using plugin version 2.0.9

Been using the documentation on http://tri.be/support/documentation/events-calendar-themers-guide/ and tri.be/support/documentation/the-events-calendar-template-tags-calendar-grid-functions/ to customize my templates.

Only one issue: I can’t get the code for tribe_get_current_month_text() to work above my calendar. I have surrounded it with php and an h2 tag, but it’s still not working. Can this function/command work on gridview.php?
<h2><?php tribe_get_current_month_text(); ?></h2>

please advise!

We are indeed 🙂 We generally only hit this forum 1x a week due to our limited support bandwidth, but I’ll have someone take a look at your issue in the timeframe mentioned in my last note. Thanks!

Hi mc_marie,

That function does not return anything by default so you need to put an echo in front of it like so:
```
<h2><?php echo tribe_get_current_month_text(); ?></h2>
```
This is typically the case with any function that include “get” like get_the_title() or get_the_content(), etc.

Does that help?

Yes, that helps! I’ll try that and report back.

How did you get on with this mc_marie – did Jonah’s code work for you?

Going to mark this one resolved, mc_marie, as it’s been a month and we haven’t heard back. Please let me know if I’ve done so in error.

Thanks for the reminder about this – honestly, the client had decided to move forward without the revision so I hadn’t tried it.
The code you provided with the echo command worked.
Thank you.
