Events Reappear After They Pass With Strange Times/Dates

[Marek Pramuka]

Hello,
Events that have passed often pop up again the following day with altered dates and strange times (like from 2 am to 11 pm the next day). I must go in and delete them manually. Is this a fixable glitch? Please kindly inform. Thank you.

Hi Marek,

Thanks so much for reaching out!

I’m sorry to hear that you are experiencing this issue on your site.

As a first step, let’s try to rule out if there is some type of conflict at play.
This is usually because of:

1.    A conflict with another plugin

2.    A conflict with your WordPress theme

3.    A template customization for the Events Calendar that requires updating

When it comes to that type of issue, it is preferable to troubleshoot in a staging environment if you have one.

A first quick test is to simply temporarily revert back to a default WordPress theme such as twenty-sixteen to see if the issue persists.

The next step would be to go through our testing for conflicts procedure and let us know what you find out.

Basically the goal here is to revert back to a bare WordPress installation to see if the problem persists. It also allows us to pinpoint what the cause of the issue is.

But, before you do that, there are 2 things I would advise:

1.    Make a backup of your database

2.    Consider activating a “Maintenance Page” plugin if you are doing this on your live site (to minimize impact on your visitors)

Before doing this, please make sure that you are running the most recent version of Events Calendar PRO.

Let me know how that goes!

 

Thanks,

Jaime
