Certain Category Not Excluding in tribe_get_events()

[Cliff]

I’m thinking this may be due to some wonkiness in the database. I’m going to check and I’ll report back.

Cool, no worries 🙂

I’ve managed to get around this issue, but let me explain what I did and see if we can hunt this down. WP Engine insisted it was too hard to figure out.

I created a new category and updated the code to filter by that new category.
I ran an update on the term_relationships table to change everything associated with the old category to the new one.
On events series, I had to de-select the category, save, and then re-save with the new category.

It now…works. Any thoughts?

I’m not sure, honestly.

There was a difference between what you and I were seeing anyway – for me, so long as I ran the code some point after the init action (and tested against slugs rather than names) it retrieved the expected results, whether using a set of test events or with the database dump you provided.

So, really, pretty puzzling – but whatever the cause it sounds like you’ve cracked it which is awesome 🙂

Hi! It’s been a while so I’m going to go ahead and close this thread. If we can help with anything else, though, please don’t hesitate to create new threads as needed. Thanks!
