Admin filter and duplicating venues

[Brandon Duncan]

There are a couple of bugs that are affecting me on the back-end of my site regarding Events Calendar PRO.

1.) I am unable to search events by Start Date on the admin side. It generates no results when I ask for events for a specific date.

2.) For some reason a venue was duplicated on a couple of other events that were totally unrelated to the one event that was created. How could this have happened?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Howdy Brandon,

1.) I am unable to search events by Start Date on the admin side. It generates no results when I ask for events for a specific date.

That is a known bug 🙁 . There is a fix though. If you open up events-calendar-pro/src/Tribe/APM_Filters/Date_Filter.php, on lines 68-73 you will see:

if ( $key === 'ecp_start_date' ) {
$field = 'eventStart.meta_value';
}
if ( $key === 'ecp_end_date' ) {
$field = 'eventEnd.meta_value';
}

Replace those with:

if ( $key === 'ecp_start_date' ) {
$field = 'tribe_event_start_date.meta_value';
}
if ( $key === 'ecp_end_date' ) {
$field = 'tribe_event_end_date.meta_value';
}

We will get this patched in an upcoming release as soon as we can. But of course you can patch it yourself in the mean time by following those steps.

2.) For some reason a venue was duplicated on a couple of other events that were totally unrelated to the one event that was created. How could this have happened?

I am not sure I follow. Are you saying that you create a venue for one event, then later discovered two event which had no venue were now assigned to that new venue? I have no idea how that could happen. But perhaps I am misunderstanding?

Please let me know. I want to be of further assistance. 🙂

Cheers!

Hi Brook,

Thanks for your assistance with this. Glad to know there is a fix for the first issue.

The second issue could very well be a user error as there are multiple people adding to the calendar on a consistent basis. I’ll need to check with user again to see if that error is still occurring and then I’ll provide you with a clearer picture of what is going on.

Cheers,
Brandon

Ahh. Thanks for getting back Brandon. That’s understandable. I’ll wait to hear more from you if you discover some specifics. Cheers!
