Cannot Export ICS file

[Dan]

I have Events Calendar Pro but the core plugin version 4.4.0.1 was released recently. Ever since I updated it, I cannot export an ics file to install into Outlook for printing at our church. The download said is was successful, but I have tried importing it into Google calendar and Outlook. Messages appear that there are errors in multiple lines. The calendar appears empty in the target.

I also get a message on my wp-admin page that indicates that “An automated WordPress update has failed to complete! Please notify the site administrator”. I’m assuming that it is The Events Calendar since that is the only update that I have installed over the last several weeks.

I have tried downloading 4.4.0.1 and installing it again, but WordPress tells me that the destination folder already exists and that the plugin install failed.

We export the calendars monthly and import them into Outlook so that we can print them and put them up on the wall in the church for parishioners to visually check for meetings, etc. How can I fix this. I have included the last part of the error listing from Outlook.

After posting the problem with ics exports, I am also experiencing huge issues with the latest core release. First, I cannot login to wp-admin. It keeps bouncing back to the login screen. I can, however, view my site on the web without logging in. However, the latest calendar entries are not in chronological order in month view (just like they were before the latest release). List view shows in the proper order.

Hi Dan,

Sorry to see you’re experiencing a plethora of issues. I’m unsure as to why you’re unable to log into your WordPress dashboard. You might want to do some general searches on the web to look for any possible reasons you’re locked out and how to regain access.

I’m not confident this issue is related to any of our plugins, though anything is possible. Please let me know when you’re able to successfully access your WordPress dashboard and then we can begin investigating your other issues.

Thanks and best of luck. Cheers 🙂

Thanks for the information. It seems that the server had a caching problem at the same time as the Events Calendar was being updated. The server issue has been resolved and I have just updated the plugin to 4.4.0.1. I hope that it goes without a hitch, especially since there are others that have had their own challenges with the patch.

Our server issues are now resolved, but the calendar entries are not in chronological order again. I’ll revert to a previous version and await an update.

Happy Monday!

Glad to hear the server issues have been addressed. Do the events still display in the wrong chronologically order when the default Twenty Seventeen theme is active and all plugins other than ours deactivated? To continue receiving support, please review the Testing for conflicts guide and let me know what you find out.

There is the potential of a theme and/or plugin conflict, so rather than revert back to a working version, it’s best you identify what’s exactly going on. If a bug is present, I’d be more than happy to get it logged so the devs can get a release out.

Please let me know what you find and have a great afternoon 🙂

Problem solved. Multiple server issues and a plugin conflict. Events Calendar is working great.

Thank you for letting me know the issue has been resolved and please feel free to create a new thread if you have any more questions or comments. Take care!
