Map

[Stefan Krueger]

Hi,

I have the same problem like these guys here:

Map View Sort

For some reasons the events seem to not be sorted, but show up randomly and I have no idea why.
Any ideas ?

Also, is there a shortcode to display exactly what you can see inthat link ? A map view with all the events ? And also, how can I increase the number of events displayed on the map?

Thanks

Howdy Stefan,

I would love to help you with this.

For some reasons the events seem to not be sorted, but show up randomly and I have no idea why.

That is quite strange. I have seen similar issues before, usually with something changing the sort order to the published date of the event rather than its start date. To test for this we will need to see if a “conflict” is happening, and if so narrow it down so we can find a fix for it. This guide walks you through how to test for a conflict, and then identify what is conflicting. If you follow those steps are you able to temporarily cause this to go away? If so what is that was conflicting?

The issue you linked to before does not appear to be quite the same, as the user was seeing things sorted by distance not randomly.

Also, is there a shortcode to display exactly what you can see inthat link ? A map view with all the events ?

We do not yet have that. We are working on making entire views embeddable as shortcodes. Until then this is not really possible.

And also, how can I increase the number of events displayed on the map?

There is a setting in WP-Admin > Events > Settings that allows you to select the “Number of events to show per page” for all views, including Maps. Changing this setting will adjust the number displayed. Does that do what you wanted?

Cheers!

Thanks !
I was able to identify the culprit for the mixed up listings and it is all good now.

When it comes to the second part of my question, I think I am subject to this bug https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/cant-save-changes-in-general-settings/
or am I not ?! If I am subject to, than I am wondering whether there is a bypass via altering the php code or so ?!

Excellent news!

Ahh yes. That is such an annoying bug. A lot of people have had success bypassing this by deleting an entry from their database. But not everyone feels comfortable doing that. Here’s what I would do if you have PHP My Admin:

1. Backup the database just to be safe
2. Open the wp_options table
3. Find the row where the option_name is “tribe_settings_sent_data” ( SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name=’tribe_settings_sent_data’ )
4. Delete that row
5. Now try editing your settings again, hopefully this time it saves properly

If that does not work the only remaining option is to downgrade ( Downgrading a plugin ) to version 4.1.4 and then update your settings.

Please note we are working on patching this bug and it will be fixed in version 4.2.1, which might be ready in less than a week.

Did that work?

Cheers!

Thanks for your help on that issue. I think I will just wait for the next update for now.

[Brook]

That sounds like a plan. I just added your topic to the list of those affected, so we’ll notify you when the fix is ready.

Cheers!
