Widget shows latest news stories instead of latest events

[Sonny Parlin]

I just updated to 3.3 and now the events calendar widget shows our wordpress posts instead of calendar events under the mini-calendar. It seems to show the same number of posts that’s configured in the wordpress settings for our blog. I had to switch to the events list widget, but I’d like to be able to use the events mini-calendar widget…

Hi wggb,

This sounds suspiciously like a bug we thought we had quashed in this release. To help me replicate though can I ask you:

* To post a copy of your System Information, as found the the Events → Help admin screen
* Confirm if this happens with no other plugins and only a default, unmodified theme such as Twenty Twelve running
* Let me know if this happens wherever the widget is deployed or, for instance, just on the home page

Thanks – and sorry for the inconvenience.

I left a comment with my system info, but it didn’t show up here… It will be VERY difficult for me to disable our plugins and try a default theme. Is it possible for you to look into this witout me doing that?

[Barry]

The system info came through – sometimes posts with system info are for some reason treated as spam and need to be manually recovered by a team member, so it may not appear at first to have been posted.

I don’t actually see anything in there to help me replicate this; I’ve tried under a few conditions and can’t recreate locally.

It will be VERY difficult for me to disable our plugins and try a default theme. Is it possible for you to look into this witout me doing that?

I can appreciate that – perhaps as an alternative you could create a test environment (even if that is a new WordPress installation living in a subdirectory) and start with nothing beyond WordPress, a default theme and our own plugins and see if you can replicate there, thus avoiding impact on your live site.

You could then basically build up to the same stack of plugins/themes as on your live site and see if that allows you to reproduce and by process of elimination uncover any conflicts.

Is that possible?

[Sonny Parlin]

Okay I’ve narrowed it down to having something to do with my theme… not sure what yet, but I set up my development environment and disabled all the plugins and the problem was still there. However using it with 2012, the plugin widget works. So I’m currently trying to sort through my functions.php file to see what could be causing the issue. ANy suggestions of specific things to look for would be great. For instance, what was causing this bug on your end before you guys fixed it? That might help me as I wade through 2k+ lines of code in our functions.php file.

[Sonny Parlin]

I figured out what the problem was. I had made some changes to the mini calendar in a previous version by creating tribe-events/widgets/mini-calendar-widget.php in my theme’s directory. I forgot all about it, and when I upgraded, that problem came about.
