Link to the Event missing into Event countdown widget

[Rene]

hi there

I just updated the events calendar pro plugin to 4.0. Now the link to the event is missing on the top of the Event countdown widget.

Please help. Thanx
Rene

Howdy Rene,

Welcome to our support forums and thanks for reaching out to us. I’ll help you out with this issue!

I’ve tested this myself and it’s indeed failing 🙁 Unfortunately everything indicates this is a bug in our code.

You can downgrade the plugins to version 3.12.6 where I could confirm this is not happening or alternatively patch a plugin file until this fix is included (most probably) in the upcoming maintenance release.

If you are down with patching the core file (which is something we do not usually encourage users to do), just replace the content of the file ‘wp-content/plugins/events-calendar-pro/src/Tribe/CountDown_Widget.php’ with the content of this gist:

https://gist.github.com/niconerd/d3dfe20c9ccaa5c80ef0

That should fix this issue until the maintenance release is out,
Please let me know if it works as expected,
Best,
Nico

Hi Nico Santos

I have replaced the content of the file ‘CountDown_Widget.php’ as you have suggested

…and Tattaaa – the missing link is back and works properly 😀

Thank you for your help.
Cheers
Rene

Hey Rene,

Stocked to hear the fix worked as expected 🙂 The fix has already been merged into the plugin code and will be part of the first maintenance release coming out pretty soon.

I’ll go ahead and close out this thread, but if you need help with anything else please don’t hesitate to create a new one and we will be happy to assist you.

Best,
Nico

Hi Rene,

Just jumping in to let you now that the patch for this issue is included in 4.0.1 and it just released today. Keep your eyes open for the update and please do let us know if any other issues pop up and we’d be happy to help. 🙂

Cheers!
