IE8 in Calendar View.

[bge666]

Hey There.
Having a little issue with the Calendar view in IE8 – seems like the next & previous links and the ‘find events’ button are trying to fire off the ajax call. Tried disabling the script with: add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘sd_frontend_script_and_style’, 100, 0 );
function sd_frontend_script_and_style() {
if(tribe_is_month()) {
wp_dequeue_script( ‘tribe-events-calendar’ );
}
}
and everything worked fine – but would prefer not to disable the JS just to make IE8 work.

Howdy bge666,

Thanks for reporting this! Let me fire up my trusty IE8 VM as soon as I am not on my laptop later today. I shall try and replicate the problem and then we can see about a better solution. I’ll report back soon.

I appreciate your patience whilst I tested this. So here is what I did:

1. Opened a WP site with The Events Calendar + PRO in IE8
2. I browsed to my events, clicked on List view.
3. When I clicked next, it loaded the next page of events. Clicking back did the same. No matter how far I paged forwards or backwards they loaded successfully via ajax.
4. I tried using the search function. While it loads via Ajax it does not load the proper results. Turns out this is not specific to IE8. I logged a bug about this.

As it stands I was unable to reproduce your problem, though I did find a bug unrelated to IE8. in fairness we do not technically support IE8, but we sorta do anyways. If it sounds like I did all thr proper steps, but personally did not see the same bug, then we should probably start looking at your install and what is unique about it. Most of the time that is the plugins and theme combination. Would it be possible for you to test if this is one of the customizations to your site that might be conflicting. This guide will help you test if something is. It then walks you through identifying what is conflicting. Once we know that we can work towards a fix.

I look forward to helping you resolve this. Let me know if I can be of further help. And if you have a chance please answer the questions above. Thanks!

Since this topic has gone for a couple of weeks without a response I going to archive it. If for some reason this issue is not resolved though, please open a new topic. We are happy to continue helping!
