Summary
Maintenance Release
The latest version of Events Calendar Pro includes some bug fixes, improved compatibility with WPML, and several accessibility tweaks.
As always, we recommend testing updates on a staging site first, but it should all be smooth sailing.
✅ Fixes
Bugs squashed in this release:
- Add a filter to allow skipping updating the series post status, for example during old event cleanup.
- Add filters to control Venue and Organizer page titles.
- Fix recurring event view links in admin dashboard when using WPML with different domains per language by including get_option( ‘home’ ) in URL stripping logic.
- Handle ignored imported events in Event Manager list view.
