Thanks George, that makes sense. Good to know rough timelines so we can plan for this accordingly with the project we have this in mind for. I know its not a small job to do this at your end and it makes sense to wait for the WP core updates first to avoid duplicating work.

We’re currently using the WP REST API as a backbone to drive the content in an iOS App and an Android App, so the next step is to upgrade this to allow people to book on events via the app too and hence this requirement. With the timelines still likely being another 12 months, we may have to look at opening up the protected meta fields to the API as Brian mentioned in the older thread for the time being then tweak this a bit once the full end solution is here.

Thanks for the help. Will have a discussion internally and see which route we end up going down.

Regards,
Michael

Is it this we’re waiting for, https://make.wordpress.org/core/2016/10/08/rest-api-merge-proposal-part-2-content-api/ ?

Thanks Geoff, will do.

Thanks Brian, this should suffice for now, I’ll have a play.

In terms of rough timelines for expecting all end points to be supported through the API? I know this is hugely reliant on the core WP team, with their focus at the minute I can’t imagine it being longer than a few months? Is that optimistic do you feel?

I’d rather not go creating lots of customisations which are ultimately going to be overridden in a few months as support is added from Core WP team in the API and The Events Calendar team. Wondering what to do VS what to wait for until things are updated.

Michael

Yes it was a bulk update with those 3x plugins. Interestingly though, they all showed as successful before things blew up.

Will have a good test over the next few days or so to figure this out. Will update this ticket for others reference when I get to the bottom of this.

It always amazes me how something related to WordPress can just magically decide to break in such a catastrophic way for absolutely no apparent reason.

All sorted. Came across this, https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/events-not-showing-up-under-my-events/

For some unknown reason, the Administrator role didn’t have access to any of the Events settings when I installed the Members plugin. How strange.

Anyhow, it looks like everything has been sorted now.

The joys of WordPress, plugins/themes/core/random conflicts!

After much messing around with activating / deactivating various plugins. The final solution? Just viewing the Settings > Licences page, allowing the Javascript to validate the licence key that was remembered, then clicking save again.

Well, that was a little more time taking to do that than I would have liked. Anyhow, all fixed now for displaying the events on the front end of the website 🙂

What is still not showing up though is the Events in the WP Admin area. The only tabs I can still see under the “Events” tab are: Tags, Import, Settings, Help and Event Add-Ons. Not sure why the events wouldn’t be listed under here?

Thanks

Deactivated the plugin by renaming the plugin via FTP. Still no difference unfortunately. I’m going to resort to trying to disable all plugins with the exception of The Events Calendar to see if anything else could be interfering but I don’t believe this will be the case. Will try anyhow.

Thanks all. Looks like that has solved the problem and actually created another one with disabling the plugin, https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/deactivated-the-events-calendar-pro-and-events-no-longer-showing/.

Anyhow, it would be good for future plugin updates if there was a fail safe built into the plugin so that every website using the plugin isn’t affected when the tri.be website goes down.

Thanks

Also. Checked the server firewall and ports 80 & 443 are open for inbound and outbound traffic.

Thanks David, good to know when we start to create events in other languages.

Agreed, would be great to have this fixed though, it’s a bit of a pain and I would have expected a professional plugin for The Events Calendar would have seamless integration with WPML these days.

[Michael]

The exact same happens when using The Events Calendar with WooCommerce Tickets and WPML. The solution is a bit quicker than the above though. Once you’ve added the ticket and saved your event, just deactivate then reactivate the main WPML plugin and this seems to fix everything.

Sounds like a login error somewhere along the way with WooCommerce Tickets / The Events Calendar. Could really do with a fix for this please. 🙂
