Hi Brian,

The Trash Series fix seems to be working now so thats great – is there any update on the remaining bug with the duplication of those Events?

We are getting pushed very hard now from the Client, as we recommended them to pay for the PRO version of the plugin, after explaining the features. Can you at least give us an estimated time-frame?

Thanks

Hi Brian – I think i’ve narrowed it down some more – i’ve been doing some testing most of the day – it seems that these issues only occur when we check the “Hide From Event Listing” checkbox in the Add New Event screen. When i do the tests with Edit All + Trash Series with the “Hide” box un-checked, everything seems to work.

This is needed as these events are only supposed to be shown in the header of the page (not in the Calendar itself) based on the current time/date – like Notifications.

One thing I have noticed is that when i use the Trash Series button on the first event in a recurring event the rest of the events in the list still have the ‘Edit All’ button active (showing that they are still part of a recurring event) – clicking this button shows a 500 internal server error page though.

It’s almost as if the Recurring Event has been deleted, however the entries are still showing in the list (minus the first instance)

Really need to get to the bottom of this ASAP, as the plugin is not working as it should + the client are struggling to manage their events as we promised they would.

Hi Brian – not sure what is happening to my replies – they aren’t appearing on the Forums immediately.

The site is running on the Windows server, yes. – i’ve done the compatibility checklist, no joy so far.

hmmm – the main thing that sticks out is that, yes we (the client) are using a WINDOWS server.

i’m not 100% though, as i have been trying a few tests on my local machine – one thing that does happen is that when I create a Recurring event, then try and use the ‘Trash Series’ button – the other Events in the series remain there, however when i try and ‘Edit All’ on one of these remaining events (that should have been removed) i get the message
“You can’t edit this item because it is in the Trash. Please restore it and try again.”
in a new page – but the Events remain in the list

This was on a regular (Apache) server via MAMP.

Hi Brian, here a few things from your feedback

Trashing Recurring Events
– I was talking about the ‘Trash Series’ button on the first event of a recurring Event, in the List of Events in the Admin back-end. It doesn’t delete all the Events that recur – just the single one. 🙁

Editing Recurring Events
– I have tried testing it with upto a dozen events, seems to do the same even if there are one 2 instances of the Recurring Event.

Thanks,
Paul
