Release: The Events Calendar 4.0.7 + premium add-ons

The Events Calendar

Mar 02 2016

Happy March everyone! We’re going to start things off by shipping a fresh version of The Events Calendar to you. The Events Calendar 4.0.7 is a minor update with a handful of squashed bugs for your calendaring enjoyment, which we’ll dig into below.

We are also releasing updates to several of our premium add-ons. This brings our full suite to the following versions:

The Events Calendar 4.0.7
Events Calendar PRO 4.0.7
Community Events 4.0.6
Community Tickets 4.0.4
Filter Bar 4.0.4
iCal Importer 4.0.4
~~Event Tickets 4.0.6~~
~~Event Tickets Plus 4.0.6~~

Update: do to a critical bug when updating Event Tickets before Event Tickets Plus, we have pulled the 4.0.6 releases of these plugins from distribution. If you already upgraded both, you are fine continuing to run them.

The following plugins were not updated and stay at the same version number:

Eventbrite Tickets 4.0.1
Facebook Events 4.0

As always, please exercise care and caution when installing these updates. We expect no issues for those upgrading from 4.0 and greater, but it’s still a good idea to backup your database and site files as you would with any other WordPress update.

We’d also like to give a shout out to all the fine folks who reported the issues that are patched in this release. Thanks for speaking up in the forums and helping us make the calendar better! This list shows we have an awesome community and we appreciate you:
