1) First problem is that the site is now so slow, so bogged down and it has to be because of Event Pro and the few recurring events I just set up — what can I do about this? I have more recurring events to set up, I don’t know if I can continue, it’s so slow!
2) Second problem is that the Event List widget is only showing the next event ie.e one event on the Home page of the site, although on other pages, 5 events, as I have specified are showing up — here is the site —-http://www.bushnellsagelibrary.org/Howdy w3sights,
I would be glad to help.
1) This is probably caused by one of two things, either host that is simply not powerful enough to run WP + a calendar, or a database that does not have SQL_BIG_SELECTs set. You can enable that by pasting this snippet in your theme’s functions.php. If that does not work, you might need a more powerful host to run your site. You could consult with them about upping the memory limit for PHP scripts, and seeing if that helps. But, if not you might probably need a more powerful server to host your website — these tend to cost more money though.
2) That is very weird, something I have not seen before unless you are using different sidebars for each page. I notice that you are using different templates, as the home page is the only one that does not contain “page-template-default” in the <body class=>. It seems quite likely to me that these pages use different sidebars as well, and that the one on the home page has the event list widget set to only display one event. Does that make sense? Can you check this for me?
Did this help you fix it? Can I help clarify or answer more questions? Please let me know. Cheers!

Hi Brook, Thanks for the speedy response – I’m going to try out what you say for the first problem, but am writing back immediately because for the second problem on the Home page — No, I am not using different sidebars, the Home page has the one and only and same primary sidebar as every other page — The theme is the StudioPress Eleven40 theme, not the Eleven40 Pro which is HTML 5, would that make a difference, and I’ve tried getting rid of that What’s New Plugin on the Home page, but it didn’t make any difference, so I’m really perplexed and I have to correct the problem asap.
Howdy w3sights,
Does the same thing happen if you temporarily switch themes to the default 2013 one?
If disabling the theme fixes it, we have narrowed the issue down to a theme conflict. Do you have any theme overrides for the Events Calendar? If so could you try disabling them by renaming your [themename]/tribe-events/ folder to ‘tribe-events-bak’. Did that fix it?
If the issue persists in the default 2013 theme, then we have a different set of debugging steps. Please keep the 2013 theme enabled, and also disable any plugins other than the ones from Modern Tribe to see if that fixes it. If it does, please try reenabling the plugins one at a time until the issue resurfaces. When it does resurface, can you let me know which plugin caused that to happen?
If you lack theme overrides and it is only happening on the Eleven40 theme, then something seriously strange is going on. The theme is somehow altering our plugin’s query from the look of it. That should not be possible if the theme was designed according to WordPress best practices. As a workaround, depending on how your theme is designed you might be able to set the page template for the home page to a different one and text. That might just fix it.
Please let us know if one of the above ideas helped you solve it, or if you have further questions. I would be very happy to help more. Cheers
