Categories disabled by default?

[Steve Page]

I’ve just installed Community Events and find users aren’t able to select categories for their events – these are listed but appear to be disabled by default so cannot be selected by the user.

Am I missing something obvious?

If not, I see that this can be fixed within the formCategoryDropdown method in src/Tribe/main.php by adding ‘disabled’ => false to the $args (line 1928).

Howdy Steve,

That is definitely no good! It sounds like there might be a JS error on the page, preventing those categories from working properly. There are a few possible causes of that sort of thing:

1. Are you running matching versions of our plugins? If you are running Commuity Events 3.11, make sure to also run The Events Calendar 3.11 and any other versions of our plugin should also be 3.11.x.
2. Do you see a JS error in the browser console while visiting the community events page? Does it mention a plugin or anything that sounds familiar?
3. If all else fails, then it is likely the result of a plugin conflict. There is a nice step by step guide for testing if this is the cause, and if so it helps isolate it so a fix can be found: Test for conflicts

Does that all make sense? Will that work for you? Please let us know. Cheers!
