Hi Kathleen,
I’m sorry to hear you’re bumping up against some difficulties, here.
I’m curious, do you have a test site where you can set up The Events Calendar, Events Calendar PRO and a fresh, unmodified and unconfigured copy of your theme (Avada)?
Out of the box, without any settings changes (or with the minimum possible changes to make the theme usable) – do you still hit this problem?
(I’m curious because that’s a fairly popular theme, and I wondered if it impacts all installations running Avada and our own plugins or only when it is configured in a certain way.)
Thanks!
