I’ve moved an event to the trash, however it still shows in the event list and list widget. On click-through, it goes to the ‘not found’ page. (Deleted event: http://www.freepresshouston.com/event/love-letters-in-a-tree-otis-ike-ivete-lucas/2014-03-01/)
Hi!
I’m sorry you’re experiencing difficulties.
It sounds potentially like a caching problem – but before we go any further can you provide a URL where I can see the event from within a widget? Though I can see other events that are in the same series, I don’t see one with the same date (or that take me to 404s).
Let me know!
http://www.freepresshouston.com/events/ — See the sidebar widget — it’s the event: LOVE LETTERS IN A TREE • OTIS IKE & IVETE LUCAS w/ the date April 6 – May 19 (the 2nd one is still current)
I emptied the trash/deleted permanently- now when I try to ‘edit all’ the other posts for the same event, it doesn’t take me to the editor…also cannot move the posts to trash (Says “error moving to trash”) — Titles still showing in widget/list w/ no thumbnail– all kinds of dead ends.
So I’m wondering if just deleted from the database is the next step? What are the table names/steps to remove posts from phpMyAdmin db?
OK, I see the issue now – yep that is strange. It seems something has gone wrong but I’m not quite sure what.

If you feel comfortable doing this it might effectively give you a “clean sheet” to start over with, so could definitely be worth considering.
I don’t think there is a single query we can give you to do that in one step: but if you like you can try using this plugin (noting it is not officially supported – and that the version I linked to is currently-in-development). If you activate this but then deactivate your events plugins you should find a new event data cleanup option in the tools menu – open this and follow the steps, it should remove all events data from the site (do also heed the recommendations and backup first of all!).
Does that help?
ok- not all are leading to 500 error pages— however many are or they’re simply not loading the single listing.
Some issues I’m encountering after trying to delete that initial post:
–I can’t use the edit all posts option– gives me a 500 error.
–Past events are now showing in list view, starting with February– March is missing. If I go to the other views, the date resolves correctly.
–I was able to search my database for the offending post that I was trying to delete, remove it from there, so now it’s not showing up, so that’s resolved.
–Recurring nightmare– see this listing. It’s only set to run from 4/26/2014- 5/4/2014 but it’s showing all kinds of other dates: http://www.freepresshouston.com/event/houston-international-festival/all/
That definitely isn’t good:
- How did you import the events? Was it via our built in CSV import tool or via WordPress’s XML importer?
- Something is clearly going wrong and it’s a pretty unusual set of circumstances – I wonder if something else might be conflicting
With regards to the latter point, if possible, please try the following steps:
- Ensure The Events Calendar/Events Calendar PRO are up-to-date
- Switch to a default, unmodified theme such as Twenty Thirteen
- Deactivate all other plugins
Now check and see if any of those issues are resolved/try creating some new events and see if they work as expected. Let me know how you get on 🙂
I’m going to give it a fresh start this weekend. Please close this thread. If I have any other issues, I’ll have a step-by-step ready of how it occurred- the export/import solution has taken the original problem to a new level that won’t do any good to others by troubleshooting it here.
