I am having difficulties getting my events posts to show up in the advanced widget. This IS a theme conflict, but any suggestions on what to look for? http://www.filmobsession.com
Hi Christopher,
The main thing I would look for is improper use of custom queries (like using query_posts or get_posts when WP_Query should be used) and/or the queries not being reset. Also, try turning WP_DEBUG on to see if there are theme errors that appear and if there are I would contact the theme author to see if they can be fixed because that could be the problem.
If you want, we can also take a quick look but no guarantees. Please email a copy of your theme to pro [at] tri [dot] be and reference this thread and attn. to me.
I hope that helps!

Hi Christopher,
I took a look at the theme and couldn’t figure out what the problem is. I’ve passed it onto one of our developers to take a look and will post back when I know more. Stay tuned.

Hi Christopher,
So I got word back from one of our developers and apparently there is a badly implemented function in made/functions/custom.php line 59 that messing with our query and basically any other custom query any plugin does there. To fix, delete lines 59-82. Not sure what else this will impact in the theme but this is the source of the conflict and needs to be corrected either with this modification or by the theme author. If you want this as a more permanent fix I suggest you contact the theme author with these details because the issue is going to crop up not only with our plugin but others as well. Our developer that looked into this suggested the following:
“At the very least they should check if ($query->is_main_query()) so it affects only the, doh, main query and not the widgets/menus/etc”.
I hope that helps but let me know if you need anything else.
Regards,
Jonah
