crash with new update

[grand165]

just wanted to alert someone that the update to The Events Calendar PRO 4.3.1 seems to crash with my wordpress 4.6.1 website. I deleted the plugin (still using the free version but i did pay for the pro.), after deleting the folder for The Events Calendar Pro instantly the website was back up. not sure whats causing this.

Garrett,

We will be shipping a hotfix for this as soon as possible.

This is a compatibility issue with PHP 5.2. While we do try to support old versions of PHP 5.2, because WordPress itself does, using out-of-date versions of software like this is bad for security and site performance.

You have two options for a temporary fix:

• You can head to line 97 of events-calendar-pro/src/functions/template-tags/venue.php from this:return ! empty( tribe_get_events( $args ) );

  to this:
  
$tribe_events = tribe_get_events( $args );
return ! empty( $tribe_events );

• Or you can delete The Events Calendar 4.3.1.1 and Events Calendar Pro 4.3.1 from your site and temporarily re-install versions 4.3 of both plugins until we release a fix for this issue—which we will do promptly and are working on as I type this response.

Thank you so much for your patience! Please let us know if you have further questions on this matter or anything else we can try to help with.

I attempted to change the code on 97 in venue.php however, line 97 is blank and the code

return ! empty( tribe_get_events( $args ) );

does not exist in that file.

Hopefully I can spare you further spelunking in the code 🙂

The Events Calendar PRO 4.3.1.1 hotfix is now available and is targeted at exclusively fixing this bug. You can either auto-update to that version or grab it from the downloads in your account – https://theeventscalendar.com/my-account/downloads/

Let me know if you need any other assistance.

Thank you!

Sounds like that worked for you, glad to hear it! I’m closing out this thread.
