Summary

Feature Release

This updated version of The Events Calendar adds a new Month View section to the WordPress Customizer and includes several bug fixes.

As always, we recommend updating on a staging site, just to be safe, but it should all be smooth sailing. And please note that this is a feature release that focuses on bug fixes and compatibility with our new Events Calendar Pro 5.7 update.

✨ New

New features included in this release:

Added new Month View section to the WordPress Customizer for users who are using updated calendar views.

✅ Fixed

Bugs that were squashed in this release:

Applied responsive breakpoints once the page has fully loaded with all JavaScript and elements on the page.
Resolved conflicts with Gravity Forms plugin that prevented correct submission of forms data.
Fixed handling of the start and end of day cutoff in Day View when the server timezone is not the same as the site (thanks @therealgilles).
The archive body class is no longer removed from post tag and category pages when using Default Page Template as event template.
Fixed translation of calendar view in WPML language switcher (thanks @dgwatkins).
Fixed <button> styles when using the Twenty Twenty One theme.
Single event iCalendar export now correctly exports only that event information.
When Timezone Mode is set to “Manual time zones for each event”, the correct date and time in the Day View time separator are now used
Fixed conflict with the “Hello Elementor” theme to avoid issues with The Events Calendar and Events Calendar PRO views.
Corrected typo in style output from Customizer. Thanks @apmatthews for catching and correcting this!
Resolved PHP warnings when linked post types are filtered out (thanks @baden03).

🔧 Tweaks

A few tweaks we made under the hood:

Removed the usage of the phrase “Now onwards” on list-style view date range headings, in favor of the simpler “Upcoming”.
Events from latest past events now display the featured image.
Moved messages below the calendar grid in the mobile version of Month View.
Message now displays that lets visitors know the selected Month View day has no events in mobile view.
Added compatibility for the Full Site Editor navigation block.
When using Event Aggregator, now only the type of files allowed will be displayed.
Updated the lodash library to include a security fix.
Skip to Content tab no longer breaks widget icon styles.
Updated Google Calendar link to use the timezone based on the Timezone Settings from the Calendar.
