Please try this for the month of June. It’s something to do with being the last day of month and falling on last day of week.
If it’s an all day event it will export. An event with a start and stop time will not. This is using the export button that displays with the calendar on the WordPress page….
To show this better I have changed the website setting on Lakehawk.net so that the week starts on Monday and now the export of Junes events is correct for the 30th of June. The other website listed ( https://www.jekyllisland.com/events-calendar/2018-06/ ) however is set to start the week on Sunday and you will find that its export for June does not include the event for June 30th. I have no control over that website but since I can reproduce this by changing lakehawk.net setting to start the week on Sunday then I’m sure its got to be something in the event calendar export routines. We use the export from the other website so this is going to be ongoing issue if we cannot get a fix from you. It seems strange that all day events will get exported no matter what day of the week WordPress has set to start for the week… but any event that does have an actual start and stop time then will not be exported.
Here’s some additional info…. I have discovered if I change the WordPress settings so that the week begins on Monday instead of Sunday that this problem no longer occurs. One would think it would export regardless of what day the week starts on.
I have checked adding events to November 30th after DST ends and that works… So I have to wonder did someone just hardcode that March only has 30 days for the export functions? I can find no settings in wordpress or event calendar that would cause this issue. It’s just strange that its only messing up on March 31.
I believe now that this issue has something to do with Daylight Savings Time… If I go back to December and export the events for that month I get all the events, including the last day. The only difference starting in March is that Daylight Savings Time begins on the second Sunday. Somehow when exporting after DST goes into effect its not accessing the last day of the month.
By the way… we do nothing with iCal. We put the events in the event calendar and then our iOS app gets the export from your event calendar and parses the ICS file and does it’s own thing with the events. It’s got to be something in the export code. It’s strange that it exports fine fora last day of feb which is the 28th… but when last day is 30or 31 then it’s not exporting that days events.
In my experience with event calendar it do3s export recurring events. We have some on our calendar and they are exported for each day the event recurs.
This was working perfectly and all events for a month were being exported until recently. So I’m confused. I’m not sure if it was the last plugin updat3s that broke it or the one before. Is it possible to revert to earlier versions of both ebvent calendar and event calendar pro? I wou,d think this is a bug in event calendar … we only got the pro version to better support venues.
I’m not sure what you mean by something set in event series.
I have tried deactivating all other plugins and changing the wordpress theme. It has made no difference. I have also seen this same problem on another website as well. We export data from that site to ICS files and import them into our own and it also is not exporting the last day of the month for March or April. You can view it at https://www.jekyllisland.com/events-calendar/2018-03/
I have set the wp_debug values but I’m not seeing the output file.
This used to work just fine. The only thing that has changed has been the updates that have been applied for Event Calendar and Event Calendar Pro on our website. This is causing us real issues with our IOS app who uses the export feature from this calendar.
