Calendar Widget links to wrong recurring event

[Rick Maggio]

I just upgraded to Events Calendar 3.0.1 and am seeing that the event calendar widget is displaying upcoming events correctly, but linking to the wrong version of upcoming recurring events. For example, a recurring event which is occurring today links to one which occurred last week.

Here’s a link: http://www.walkaboutwellington.com

Hi Rick,

Which event is the recurring event?

[Rick Maggio]

Hi Jonah,
Almost all of my events are recurring. If you visit the homepage, you’ll notice several events which are recurring and are happening today. Examples:
1. Take out pizza special
2. Happy Hour at Backstreets
3. Hurricane Grill & Wings Daily Specials

All three of these events link to the original day/time which they were created, as opposed to linking to the today’s version of each event. For example:
1. Take out pizza special links to http://www.walkaboutwellington.com/event/take-out-pizza-special-2/2013-07-01/ instead of http://www.walkaboutwellington.com/event/take-out-pizza-special-2/2013-07-09/
2. Happy Hour at Backstreets links to http://www.walkaboutwellington.com/event/happy-hour-at-backstreets/2013-07-01/ instead of http://www.walkaboutwellington.com/event/happy-hour-at-backstreets/2013-07-09
3. Hurricane Grill & Wings Daily Specials links to http://www.walkaboutwellington.com/event/hurricane-grill-wings-daily-specials/2013-07-01/ instead of http://www.walkaboutwellington.com/event/hurricane-grill-wings-daily-specials/2013-07-09/

For some reason, it seems to only affect old events which were set to recurring. I’ve added new test events which seem to function fine.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Rick,

I’m not seeing any of these events in the calendar or in the calendar widget (and I dont’ see where you’ve got the calendar widget displayed…). Did you delete them?

[Rick Maggio]

Sorry for the delay. I had to get it off the homepage because the load times were crazy. Here’s a link and thanks in advance: http://www.walkaboutwellington.com/test-page-2/

Check out either:
* Happy hour at backstreets
* Happy Hour at JoJo’s

Hi Rick,

I see the issue now. What happens if you update these older recurring events? Does that correct things for you? What about clearing your permalinks by visiting Settings > Permalinks?

Hi Jonah,
If I edit and re-save past events, it seems to correct the problem. Thank you.

Hi Rick,

Sounds good. I think that’s going to be the best solution at this point but let me know if you think otherwise.

Thanks,
Jonah
