Search Events function not working

[Melanie]

In wp-admin, when I go to Events, and use the Search Events function to find a specific event, it doesn’t work (i.e. no results when there should be).
Any ideas on what could be the problem (known bug that I haven’t been able to find info on/ perhaps my theme/ ?)?

Thank you!
Melanie

It’s possible that there’s a conflict. Although I’m sure what your doing is all in order can I just confirm the sort of search you are doing?

Is it for a word or words that appear in the title or description, for instance, or are you trying to search against date fields or anything like that?

Hi Melanie: just checking in to see if you need any further help.

Hi Barry,
I’m doing a simple search- searching for a word that appears in the event title. It should work, right?

[Barry]

Yes it should.

Something I note (if the plugin versions you quoted when creating this thread are accurate) is that your plugins are out of synch. For instance, the current version of The Events Calendar is 2.0.10 and this must be used with Events Calendar PRO 2.0.10 or erratic behaviour may result.

So if your plugins are indeed out of synch that is something you should remedy at the earliest opportunity.

Do you mean the current version of the Events Calendar is 2.0.10 and Events Calendar Pro is 2.0.5 ? I just updated my version of PRO and it’s at 2.0.5 now.

[Barry]

No that’s not what I mean. If you visit the downloads page you will see that the latest version of Events Calendar PRO is 2.0.10.

The Events Calendar and Events Calendar PRO must always been in synch with one another (in terms of version numbers), so if you are using The Events Calendar 2.0.10 then you need to use Events Calendar PRO 2.0.10 also.

I’m not sure how you could have updated it and still have it at version 2.0.5; how did you go about the update – manually or automatically?

[Melanie]

I was trying to update it from the plugins page and it would only update to version 2.0.5. Thanks for the download link. I’m now up-to-date. The weird search behavior is still occurring but at least I know it’s not because the plugins are out of sync.

Thanks Barry.

Hi Melanie, can you give an example of the search term(s) you are using and where you would expect the match to be found? Just trying to build a complete picture the issue in my head 🙂
