Calendar Widget Does Not Advance Month, Link to Event

[adlindberg]

As this appears to be a theme conflict (when I used the 2011 theme this problem and others went away), I will notify the theme makers of this as well, but…

The Calendar widget does not advance when the arrows are clicked, nor does it go to an event when a day is clicked. Rather it just returns to the top of the page (the link being orhistory.com#).

I’m running the hickory theme from solopine http://themeforest.net/item/hickory-a-wordpress-magazine-theme/5437524?ref=solopine

I’m also not seeing events showing up in the blog feed but I bet if we solve the Calendar widget problem, we will kill this one as well.

Thank you for your help. I LOVE this plugin.

Howdy adlindberg,

I am really glad to hear you like our plugin. We do our best!

I bet you your theme does not output sidebar widget classes. Notice in the WordPress documentation that it recommends you output the following with your widgets ‘class=”widget %2$s”>’. The %2$s is particularly important, as many widgets, ours included, need those classes to work. Some themes however ignore the WP documentation, and thus cause problems like this.

I might be wrong about the cause, but I have seen this issue a couple times before and that has historically been the solution. Since I can not see your site, I am going to have to just guess that is the problem. Definitely contact your theme author, or if you understand registering widgets you can probably fix this yourself.

Does that make sense? Did it answer your question? Please let me know. Thanks!
