Unable to view certain months

[Ryan]

Hello,

I’m not a WordPress noob, so I am going to apologize in advance. I have a calendar setup here using the PRO version of the plugin:
http://creativemediaworks.com/blog/calendar

It works great, except for one issue I can’t seem to figure out. If you land on the calendar you get Sept 2016 by default since that’s the current month, but if I keep hitting next month, once I get to “December 2016” and then click “January” to view January 2017 it redirects me to the root of our WP directory (/blog) for some reason. I can’t seem to figure out why.

In the date filter I can enter “January 2017” and then view the calendar for that month fine. The same thing happens for a few other months in 2017 (Jan, Feb, Mar, May & Aug). If I jump to December 2017 and then click on January I can jump ahead to 2018 as expected.

I am totally stumped and not sure if you would have any recommendations on how to best troubleshoot this. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,
Ryan

Good evening Ryan and welcome to the Events Calendar Support forum!

Thank you for reaching out to us.

We are sorry to hear about the calendar disappearing on you in January.
I would love to help you with this topic.

The first thing I am noticing, is that you are using an older version of WordPress. If at all possible, and after a database backup, I would highly recommend updating that version to a more recent one.

But, before doing that, the next step would be to go through our testing for conflicts procedure (preferably in a staging/dev environment or local install of your WordPress website) and let us know what you find out.

Basically the goal here is to revert back to a bare WordPress installation to see if the problem persists. It also allows us to pinpoint what the cause of the issue is.

But, before you do that, there are 2 things I would advise:

1. Make a backup of your database
2. Consider activating a “Maintenance Page” plugin if you are doing this on your live site (to minimize impact on your visitors)

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics.
