"View all (blank) events"

[Kay]

When I click on “view all (#) events” in the month grid view, the calendar bounces me back to the current day—not the day I clicked on.

Hi, Kay. If I understand you correctly, you’re asking about the View all events link on a day of the month that has too many events to display all at once, right?

If yes, clicking that link should take you to that day’s Daily View. I tested and it worked properly on my site. However, I see this did not happen at your site.

It might be due to not having your Permalinks enabled. Please send me a screenshot of your wp-admin > Settings > Permalinks

If you like, you may enter custom structures for your category and tag URLs here. For example, using topics as your category base would make your category links like http://www.hamblenpres.org/wordpress/topics/uncategorized/. If you leave these blank the defaults will be used.

Howdy Kay,

Cliff asked me to respond here since he is headed out for the day. He and I worked together and were able to isolate a bug, which is causing the problem you are facing. We will definitely get this fixed as soon as we can, and release that fix alongside a future version of The Events Calendar. Thank you for helping us spot this!

In the meantime, this problem can be alleviated by switching your permalinks setting in WP-Admin > Settings > Permalinks to anything but “Plain”. If they are any other setting, the calendar works as expected, and clicking that link will take you to the appropriate day.

Even if you were not facing a bug, I would strongly recommend you change your permalink settings to something other than Plain. Even WordPress.org refers to Plain permalinks as “ugly”, and for good reason. Unfortunately the Plain setting has a negative impact on your site’s rankings in search engines like Google. Plain has been shown to have a negative impact on your users as well, making the URLs on your site seem more intimidating and even scary/questionable. Plain permalinks are just all around the worst option; when it is possible to use a different one it is strongly recommended that you do. Plus, it will remedy this bug!

Please let me know if you have any questions! We’re happy to help. Cheers!

– Brook
