Upgrading from Events to Events Pro

[3md]

I installed the free version and set up many events. I now want to use the Pro version, which I purchased; however there’s no way to enter in a license key under the Licenses section AND the Plugin will not let me update it – it says it’s the latest version (3.5.1). If I upload the Pro version of the plugin it won’t have my events. Please help. I read through the tutorials but it doesn’t work as stated in the migration tutorial.

Hello 3md,

Thanks for upgrading! Sorry you are experiencing this right from the start!

There is currently a known bug in which the license tab displays no fields. Sorry about that! The update should be in the next release.

For now though, your Pro plugin should function just fine without a license.

There may be some confusion between the version numbers too; they are out of sync.

– The Events Calendar (free) is currently at 3.5.1
– The Events Calendar Pro is currently at 3.5.2

If you just upgraded, these are the versions I assume you have. They currently don’t match and that’s ok!

Can you expand on this part?

If I upload the Pro version of the plugin it won’t have my events.

This is a common misunderstanding, but you must have both plugins installed, the free and the Pro versions. The Pro is just an addon and you won’t be able to do anything without the free version installed first.

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

Cheers!
