I’ve had this issue for a while now hoping it would figure itself out or I would see a solution posted by another forum user. No such luck & time to deal with it. We use Pro and that plug-in continues to be updated automatically when we run updates via WordPress dashboard letting us know there are updates to run. We end up with the Event’s Calendar plugin NOT getting updated along with Pro. WordPress continues to identify that we have an old version of Events Calendar & that there is a conflict. We click to update and the update page states we are already at the newest version. I have to head out to your website, manually download the zip for the newest version of Event Calendar and manually upload to get it to update. Let the suggestions to fix begin. Thanks.
That does sound a little odd, especially if Events Calendar PRO is updating successfully.
Something is clearly confusing WordPress’s update system and I’m not quite sure what that would be. Is it possible that after manually uploading the plugin some stray files weren’t tidied up, or anything of that order?
Can you confirm if, when you manually upload, you are doing this by FTP? Or are you simply doing this via WordPress’s own plugin upload admin screen?
The upload is being completed via WordPress’ own plugin upload system. I am selecting ‘Yes’ that I am updating and existing plugin. I do not know what files there would be to clean up or where they might be.
OK – if you are consistently using WordPress’s own upload screen it should be fine.
I wonder if some kind of conflict could be at work? Is it only The Events Calendar which is impacted by these problems or are other plugins also affected?
When the time next comes to update, would it be possible to try temporarily deactivating all other plugins and switching to a default theme and see if it works then?
It is just the Events Calendar that is impacted…at this point. I can give that a shot. Won’t be until the next release of The Events Calendar.
For sure: we did actually just release 3.8.1, so if you’re able to give it a shot that would be awesome.
I found a plug-in that was dated & not updated in quite some time – once deactivated all other plug-in were able to recognize they needed to be updated, The Events Calendar included, and I was able to have them auto-updated using the Word Press system. This was apparently a larger issue than I realized, not just The Events Calendar. Thank you for your help!!
No problem, I’m glad we got to the bottom of it!
I’ll go ahead and close this thread but if we can help with anything else please don’t hesitate to create a new thread and one of the team will be only too happy to assist 🙂
Last but not least, if you have a moment to spare we’d love to hear from you over on our plugin review page: thanks again!
