With facebook imports looking to be permanently gone, hopefully we will get the other import sources working properly now?
I haven’t been able to find the combination of older version yet that worked.
Have you heard anything from the developer working on this bug?
I changed it to the new license and there was, unfortunately, no change.
I will look into using the version that was working, but where can I get old versions to download?
We only have one import coming from google calendars, and you can see from screenshot this is only updating 22 events and manual imports work fine so I don’t think this is a timeout issue.
Also, each import with a status of Import Pending shows 0 in the imported column, but a manual import shows “0 new 22 updated”. I was going to screenshot this however after running the manual import all the imports with a status of Import Pending were cleared out.
Have you tested this with a cron job and wp-cron disabled?
My copy of the site would run the import script mostly successfully and the only difference was that on the live site I have wp-cron disabled and run a cron job every 5 minutes to trigger it.
Our live site still has issue with the import, I re-enabled it yesterday and every scheduled import since then has a status of “Import Pending”.
I set up a dev site to test this and the scheduled events are functioning the same way as the live site. I am attaching a screenshot. The last “completed” import was manual.
On the dev site, I re-enabled wp-cron to rule that out as an issue, and the scheduled imports work the same way – the top “pending” import keeps resetting the “When” time back to 1 minute.
As you can see even the failed event says it updated some events.
As for the issue of “All-day” events getting extra days added, I was unable to replicate this on the dev site. This was not happening before the recent patch on the live site but maybe has to do with starting out with no existing events on dev site.
One thing I did notice on the live site is in the events list view the all-day events will, for example, show a start date of “October 16” and an end date of “October 17”, but when you go into the event both the start and end date show October 16 and also on front end it shows the 16th. This is one of the events that get an extra day added when the import runs.
Next, I am going to make a current copy of the live site to see if it stops adding the extra days if I clear out all the old events.
This, unfortunately, is getting even more frustrating. I tried deleting the scheduled event and recreated it, after that the scheduled imports started, but with many issues.
So after much testing here is what I am finding with imports;
-Import is set to 30 minutes, but when watching the history the scheduled import last run time is resetting to 1 minutes before it has been 30 minutes – seems to reset about every 5 minutes (I do have wp-cron disabled and my manual cron runs every 5 minutes).
-Import is staying in pending state, but it does seem to actually run – still testing this as I have to wait at least 30 minutes to see.
-If I do a manual import it resets the pending import and all imports then show completed, but next time the scheduled import happens this starts over.
The new major issue is that with the last update any “All-day” events are having the end time being extended by 1 day each time the import runs, this happens with both the scheduled import and a manual import.
If I delete the events that are doing this and do a manual import they all have the correct dates again, but next time the import runs the days get added again.
What I don’t understand is this doesn’t happen to every event…
So yet again, the scheduled import for us is completely broken so that it has to be disabled.
Thank you for the update. I have installed the update and it looks like scheduled imports run again from the history. However, the imports are all in a “Pending” state with nothing being imported or updated.
Manual imports are still working though.
Thank you, it does seem like some bugs have getting fixed and then the next patch they are broke again for the past month.
We are waiting eagerly for a fix as we are currently having to manually run the import every few hours.
Is there no other way to remove the stuck import in the meantime? Or would this not fix the problem anyway?
I have tried recreating the scheduled import many times, but I tried again to be sure. No luck, still not importing on schedule.
Coult it not be the import stuck pending in the history? Recreating the scheduled import did not clear that out.
Here is the ICS we are using;
You can see in the screenshot of “Event Aggregator System Status” – WP Cron is disabled, but I have a cron job that runs every 5 minutes. I attached a screenshot of my cron events to show you they are running fine.
I am putting in a screenshot of my import history as well. All the successful imports are manual – the one at the bottom stuck pending since 9/14 is from the scheduled import. Is there a way to clear that out to see if it will run successfully?
