One side of month pagination missing

[chriswerstiuk]

Link http://relaytraining.com/events/month/

If I’m in October, I only have a bottom link to go to September. If I’m in September, I can only go to August.

I also see similar on my site, although in the non PRO version of TEC. My suspicion is that the link (to the month) is not displayed if there are no events in the month to display – which I’m reasonably certain was not the behaviour pre 3.7.
Also interested in seeing what the response is from the Support team.

That was my guess, and I made the event recur every month and no change.

Hello chriswerstiuk,

Thanks for contacting us!

This was indeed an intentional feature released in 3.7. Users can navigate the current month, and any month that has events on it.

Previously, a webcrawler like Google would find every month as it’s own link, cause some SEO headaches. This alleviates that problem.

I see on your second comment, that you added a recurring event and it doesn’t show. That may be a bug, or it may be a conflict. Can you walk through this conflict tut, and see if the problem persists?

Does this make sense? Let me know if I can explain anything else!

Cheers!

Hello chriswerstiuk,

After talking with the devs, we confirmed this is a bug in 3.7. We intentionally hide the links in all normal scenarios, but do not account for recurring events in this instance.

I’ve made a ticket, and we are in the process of looking for a work around. I hope to have a response for you tomorrow.

Thanks for your patience!

Hello chriswerstiuk,

We found two workarounds for you and anyone else who experiencing this pagination problem.

1) You can simply resave the event, and it will automatically fix the link problem

2) You can add this snippet, and any future events will be made correctly the first time.

We’ve tested both of these and they work, but please let us know if they don’t work for you.

Does this make sense? Let me know if this doesn’t work for you.

Cheers!
