Thanks.
I just bought WPML for another project and noticed there is a currency switcher in that plugin. I will try that and see if it works!

[Tom Stone]

Could you please first see if there are any console errors by inspecting the edit page?
…
I suggest you setup a dev/staging site so you can make all these tests without disrupting the live site.

The time and budget for any serious development is long gone. Everyone is fully occupied with the actual event that the webpage is promoting.

You can roll back to a previous version of our plugins and see if it brings back the functionality.

I rolled back to Event Tickets 4.5.7 and Event Tickets Plus 4.5.6 and now everything works perfectly again. I’ll just have to remember not to accidentally update it when doing other updates.

[Tom Stone]

If the end/start sale dates are ok and the tickets do not appear, then please create a new page from scratch and add some tickets to it and see if you can reproduce the same behaviour.

Ok, so I’ve done this too now.

Turns out it is impossible to create a new ticket on a new page.
Instead, when updating, it ends up with a completely white screen. When reloading, there’s no ticket – but instead a new page (posttype:page) have appeared that have the same title as the ticket I tried to create.

Can I roll back the plugins to a older version, so I get my site functional again?

[Tom Stone]

Could you please go to the edit page screen and verify if the tickets created have the start sale and end sale dates set so that they show up in the frontend?

Yes. The start sale was October 1, and end sale was April 30 2018.
All there, live and functioning, directly the page was published.

[Tom Stone]

Do you have the Events Calendar enabled in your installation?
I also just discovered that two pages (posttype:page) became created, somehow, when I tried to add back the tickets – pages that have the ticket titles as page titles.

[Tom Stone]

Woocommerce.

I will post screenshots october 11, when I’m back home again.

The latest update of “WooCommerce PayPal Express Checkout Payment Gateway” seems to have fixed the bug!

[Tom Stone]

I was wrong. The bug is not as limited as I thought. Today I got a report of someone wanting to buy two tickets, but couldn’t due to a Paypal 10431 error.

[Tom Stone]

For now, I’ve added a warning via functions.php :

add_action( 'tribe_events_single_event_after_the_meta', 'bugwarning',3 );
function bugwarning(){
echo "<p>A temporary bug is stopping each purchase of <b>three</b> tickets. All other amounts are fine. You might need to split your order in two.</p>";
}

While the content of this reply wasn’t what I hoped for, the nature of the reply matched my question perfectly. Now I know better where to start. 🙂
Thank you Geoff!

(Btw, maybe a widget for Upcoming Events feeds could be a future product? Can’t imagine I’d be the only one interested.)

Thank you for those links, Geoff.
Despite being an interesting read, they do not help. And I still get the feeling that we might be talking past each other. So let me start over from the beginning

Look, I think there was a reason you guys decided to create a RSS feed for the events. And I believe that reason is that you assumed people would have an use for it. Or there would be no RSS feed at all.

And looking at the RSS feed itself, both with Firefox default stylesheet and the actual XML code, it is exactly what I want and need – a simple listing of events, in their chronological order. Awesome! Perfect! Excellent! Can’t wish for more!

The problem is that the standard WordPress RSS widget ignores the chronological order given in the feed.

I don’t know which order it uses instead, but I think it sorts by reversed post date, most new post at the top, oldest at the bottom. See the attached image.

That rather defeats the whole purpose of having an RSS feed for upcoming events.

Since your RSS feed isn’t compatible with the standard WordPress RSS widget, do you know if there are any third-party RSS widgets that are compatible with the RSS feed your plugin generates, and can show the events in the same order as in the actual feed. Or is the only option to hack the standard widget?

[Tom Stone]

Still seems like an extreme overkill to ask a lot of people to install two big plugins they have no other use for, just to display a RSS feed.

And I’m not sure how I can control how many imports others decide to do per day.
Let’s say 100 people install these two plugins on their personal sites, to display the RSS from the event site, setting it to one import/day. If one of them accidentally sets it to 2 imports/day, does that mean the plugins stop to work on the other 99 sites? Seems very complicated to troubleshoot as well.

Nope, this is neither a practical nor functional solution. Since Events Calendar outputs a RSS feed, I thought there existed a way for an arbitrary amount of others to subscribe and display that feed, as in the attached drawing, in right order.
But I’ll guess the sole fuctional option is to take a standard RSS widget, hack it and offer it for download.

Thanks!

[Tom Stone]

The reason for that is that the Event Aggregator license works with a limit of imports per day, but is not tied to a specific domain.

Aha, that was not clear from the product page. I assumed that one domain = one license
So if I buy one $89 license, how many websites can the Event Aggregator be installed on? Would one licence be enough to cover installation on ten different websites?

[Tom Stone]

Hm… Your suggestion is that every person in the group pays $90 dollar each, and that they each install a big events plugin that they don’t really need, just to display a little RSS feed in a sidebar widget?

Ok, forget that I asked. I should have known better…

Great!

I added a space before “kr” as suggested, then went into WooCommerce and removed the decimals.
Not ideal to set the formatting of the price in several places to get it consistent, but as far as it works, then…

Thank you! 🙂
