Hi Steve,
I went to your site at the domain provided, http://d49.86b.myftpupload.com, but just found a blank white screen. Can you elaborate on where your site is located, specifically?
As for the importing issues:
1. Do event imports work well if you do a manual import?
2. How many visitors do you have to your site daily, roughly? Do you have only a few? None? A few dozen? A few hundred?
3. After you set up your site’s “Hourly import”, how long was it until you visited your site?
4. Can you please post your site’s complete System Information? It’s very easy! Here is how to do it → https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/sharing-sys-info/
Cheers,
George
