Hi there,

I’ve added a Custom Post Type which I called “Events”.
Looking at the root of the Virtue theme I’ve found an “archive-events” template already existing and also a “tribe-events” folder.
I’ve made a quick research on the web and I’ve found that it’s related to the “Events Calendar” Plugin.

The purpose of my custom post wasn’t related to the calendar, but I’ll need that functionality as well, so I’ve installed the Events Calendar Plugin (removed my CPT) but it seems not to integrate that well with the theme (the footer background disappears in Single Event and even the Archive has a really a weird behavior).

Now, I want to understand when the template “archive-events” is loaded? Is it the plugin “archive page” template?
And also, if I uninstall the Events Calendar Plugin and rebuild my CPT called “Events” could create a conflict with that template?

Thanks
