Howdy Lacey,
I just wanted to let you know that I will dive into this ASAP, tonight or tomorrow. I am currently out of the office and do not have an IE9 VM for testing available just yet. Thanks for your patience!

Glad to hear it is fixed now. Please pardon my delayed response. I missed your comment. I hope the rest of the site goes smooth, cheers!

It is a very interesting idea, and I really like it. Certainly something to keep in mind.
It is cool to see how well you have researched this. If you are interested in increasing the profile of this feature suggestion, please put it up on our feature suggestion page as well. That will allow other interested users to voice this support for the idea. You might simplify it a bit, and just link to the technical details here. That way it will be a bit easier to understand for the average user.
Thanks for posting. Please let me know if you have any more questions related to this. Cheers!

Howdy Benedikt,
Thank your for running through all of those steps. It is very helpful in diagnosing things.
Based on the “Memory Usage” line from your information I am wondering if you are reaching your memory limit and the script is for some reason silently failing. Do you know what your server memory_limit is? Is it 64MB? If so can you up the ‘memory_limit ‘ to 128MB? Generic instructions for all this can be found here. That would require you edit your server’s php.ini file though, and sometimes hosting providers do not give you such access. In such a case, sometimes they will make the changes for you.
You would also want to edit the WP Memory limit. Instructions found here. Is your current WP_MEMORY_LIMIT defined? Is it 64M?
Please let me know if either of those limits is 64M. If so memory usage is likely the problem. Thanks!

Excellent! Glad to hear you fixed it, and thank you for sharing a solution for future users. I like the idea of locking down wp-admin as much as possible.
Our forums currently close the topic of any thread with an answer marked, hence why you can’t post in the other topic. We are eager to fix this behavior since it has proved utterly confusing for many forum users. However, our dev team has been focused on the next TEC release. Once they have a spare moment, expect that behavior to change. Thanks for posting!

Thanks for sharing the link. That does remove any ambiguity. Oddly, when I do the exact same steps on my local install it works fine. The major difference between my install and yours is that I am running WP 3.8.1, TEC 3.4.1, and TEC PRO 3.4 Perhaps updating your install, when you are ready to do so, will fix it? If not, the only other thing I can think to try is that search and replace.
The source code is found within your /wp-content/plugins/ folders. You will see events-calendar-pro/ and the-events-calendar/ in there.

Howdy Sian,
The advice to tweak the WP Core is indeed terrible advice. It is a huge red flag in fact. I would run from TSO to a better host, as they clearly do not fully support WP.
The second person, or “further response”, might not even know enough to understand what’s going on here. Or, they did not look into it fully. But indeed how your server is configured affects the WP HTTP API. If your server is not configured to be compatible, this happens.
If I were you I would find a new host. You probably have grounds for a refund, as they advertise WordPress compatibility. To be clear I can not help you obtain this refund in any way, but if I were in your shoes I am saying that I would try to obtain it.
I am going to close this topic since it has been a month without a response from loveyourlocalmarket. If you need further assistance Sian please open a topic detailing your problem. We try and open a new topic for each issue as this tends to speed up our response times and ensure that your specific issue is getting addressed, instead of trying to group things together and possibly missing something unique about your own problem. Thanks!

Howdy andrianasantiago,
Unfortunately Kelly was pulled away again for a few days. I will take over though so you get timely responses. I was actually the one who looked into your theme and found the incompatibilities, so please let me know if you have questions. Thanks!

Howdy umeworks,
Unfortunately Kelly was pulled away for a few days. I will take over though so you get timely responses.
To be clear, is it acceptable if I go in, activate the default 2013 theme, and try installing the plugins myself? If there is something truly unusual about your hosting environment, then it is possible that this will lock us out of the Admin area once again. However, I have never seen an issue like this before. It is my hope that since I have done quite a few of these installs I will be able to get everything running properly. But, I can not make that guarantee given the givens. Please let me know. Thanks!

Howdy begulliver,
TEC filters have been designed from the ground up with this sort of extensibility in mind. So basically each filter is an instance of the new TribeEventsFilter class. To add a new TEC filter you would want to extend that class. Since it sounds like what you want to do will be similar to the Venue Filter in a most ways, check out \the-events-calendar-filterbar\lib\filters\TribeEventsFilter_Venue.php.
Once you have created your TEC filter you would need to attach it. How I would do it is by adding my TEC filter to the tribe_events_all_filters_array. That is WP filter that you can hook into with add_filter. Simply add your TEC filter to the end of that array and return.
We do not have our documentation up yet. That should be easy enough if you do not mind jumping into the middle of some PHP. Please let me know if that helped or if you have any more questions. Thanks!

Howdy Adrian,
The PRO version’s CSV importer is the same as the free one. You should be able to import events, then do a batch edit of them to change their privacy settings though. Once you have imported the events go to WP Admin > Events. Place a checkmark next to all of the events you want to make private, then in the Bulk Actions drop-down select Edit. Change the Status, and click Save. If you have lots of events, you might be interested in the Screen Options link in the upper right of that page. It will allow you to set how many events you can view/bulk edit at once, up to 999.
I hope you will but the PRO plugin, it does come with a lot of awesome features including full support. However, you might try the import in the free version and make sure it functions like you want before purchasing PRO.
Does that make sense? Did that help?

Howdy yohanaton,
What you could do is only create a new Role & maybe a Capability for submitting events from the community form. Then using the WP API you would only allow users on the Community Events Submission page if they have the proper permission.
From there it would be up to you as to how you charge them for access. You might use a digital shopping cart plugin like EDD or WooCommerce. I bet you one of those would even allow you to directly sell user_roles, possibly via an addon. Then it will be automated.
This might sound like Greek to you. To do what you want is a solid customization, and thus requires a developer with a good knowledge of the WP API. So if that does not describe you, you will likely have to hire someone. If you do not know anyone whom you can hire, we actually keep a list of freelancers who are quite capable of making such changes on your behalf. You can obtain this list by emailing [email protected] and requesting it.
Does that make sense? Will that work for you? Please let me know. Cheers!

Thanks for clarifying Oliver. We actually do use the WP date format as specified in WP Admin > Settings, but only for full dates that include the year, month, and day. That is the only place we can use the Settings format since the settings is specifying full dates.
It would be nice if we could somehow parse that format, determine if it would make sense shorthand, and then display it. However, the determining if it makes sense would take a human, not a computer. For instance, what if you specified this format “Y.m.d”. If we just used m.d in that view, then you would have 02.08 display completely without context. It would be nonsense to your viewers. That is why we have to rely on customizations for those who would like to further adjust partial date formats.
Does that all make sense? Thanks for again for clarifying and posting. Much appreciated.

You are welcome Charlotte. That is a bit strange. I tested creating an event for next month, and it still uses my replacement text instead of the @ symbol. I truly have no idea why your site is behaving differently.
You could try searching through the plugin source code for ” @ ” (make sure to include the space on either side of the symbol) and replacing the relevant ones with your altered text. If it continues to use the wrong symbol after that, then we have encountered some strange voodoo indeed. I recommend an exorcism. 😉 This is not an ideal solution, it is more of a test just to see if the problem can be resolved.
Is the snippet working properly for you, pknvelp?
