The Events Calendar 5.16.0

Summary

Feature Release

This latest version of The Events Calendar features a brand new, dedicated tag archive for events, as well as a subscribe and export button for Outlook.

As always, we recommend testing updates on a staging site first, but it should all be smooth sailing.


✨ New

New features included in this release:

  • Added subscribe links for Outlook 365 and Outlook Live to the event views.
  • Added export links for Outlook 365 and Outlook Live to single events.
  • We’ve updated the single event export to use a dropdown template to support more links.
  • We added Outlook ICS as an option for Subscribe to Calendar that removes the X-WR-CALNAME from the file. (Props to Andy Fragen @afragen)

✅ Fixed

Bugs that were squashed in this release:

  • Prevent Redis Cache Pro fatals around date utilization and calculations on Views, related to the ‘High Performance’ setting in Redis Cache.
  • We now ensure that all expected subscribe links show when using the default page template.
  • We put back the event website label for the Classic Editor.
  • Ensure that subscription links include events up to the limit, regardless of view settings.
  • On Event tag archives, we now only show events with the tag, changed the single event tag links to use the event tag archive, and added a link to the event tag archive in the admin tag list.
  • Default event category in Global Import Settings now applies to new imports in Event Aggregator.
  • We’ve added rel noindex and nofollow to the legacy iCal export button.
