Any updates on this issue? I would like to update to the latest version but am afraid to do so until I know the issues are resolved.
Are there any updates on an ETA for this fix? I’m scared to update to the newest version unless I know the issue has been resolved.
I have moved my website to a new level of hosting and reinstalled all plugins instead of migrating the website. It seems to have solved the performance issue, at least for now. The calendar still loads slowly but that could be due to the number of events. I’ve cleared all of those and starting the reload of events new as well.
That worked thanks. As for the update, it is not possible for me to update until all of the bugs are fixed that are affecting so many different areas of functionality for me.
If you look at the other support tickets I have open (but have been required to open this one separately) you will see I cannot upgrade to the latest version because of all of the known bugs in the latest version. You would also see (as well as I have outlined completely) that I have completed testing for conflicts on numerous occasions. In every instance of issue, it returns to the issue being a “known bug” that is being worked on. But this work has continued and continued and continued with no resolve. In this case for performance, my hosting provider gave you the exact information you need to know for where the error is occuring, right down to the line. So this is really becoming quite ridiculous. If I was not continually asked to start a new thread, you would have more than ample system information and every other piece of information needed to avoid the recurring delays that seem to be about the only thing this plug in has mastered. It is beyond ridiculous. Don’t ask me again for information that has been repeatedly supplied. Just fix the problem. Looking at the forums, I am BY FAR not the only one fed up with this situation.
As stated in the details in posts above, the import is coming from Facebook. Was this simply to delay trying to answer the questions?
I am adding this information I have just received my hosting company as well. So far, we’ve discussed issues with the wrong date importing as 01/01/1990 and categories not being preserved on reimport of facebook events. So I need those addressed from info above. I’m not sure what category this new information fits into, but I have been having a lot of performance issues with my site that I thought had to do with hosting. They have spent the last week working with me and while I authorized upgrading plans by two levels, during the process of working on that request they stopped and sent this email information because of a problem that has to do with TEC. I’m copying and pasting it here
Hello, I ran a check on the calendar using Query Monitor. It’s flagging a broken query from the plugin. The query is: SELECT DISTINCT 859_posts.*, MIN(859_postmeta.meta_value) as EventStartDate, MIN(tribe_event_end_date.meta_value) as EventEndDate FROM 859_posts LEFT JOIN 859_postmeta as tribe_event_end_date ON ( 859_posts.ID = tribe_event_end_date.post_id AND tribe_event_end_date.meta_key = ‘_EventEndDate’ ) WHERE 1=1 AND 859_posts.post_type = ‘tribe_events’ AND (859_posts.post_status = ‘publish’ OR 859_posts.post_status = ‘tribe-ea-success’ OR 859_posts.post_status = ‘tribe-ea-failed’ OR 859_posts.post_status = ‘tribe-ea-schedule’ OR 859_posts.post_status = ‘tribe-ea-pending’ OR 859_posts.post_status = ‘tribe-ea-draft’ OR 859_posts.post_status = ‘private’) ORDER BY EventStartDate DESC, 859_posts.post_date DESC LIMIT 0, 1 The complaint from the query is: Unknown column ‘859_postmeta.meta_value’ in ‘field list’ I believe the problem is because the table name is being joined in as a different name, so instead of “859_postmeta.meta_value” it should be “tribe_event_end_date.meta_value”. This isn’t something you can fix. It’s a problem in the plugin code itself. It could also affect the performance of the page because MySQL has take the time to check and then fail that query. There are two other factors that are affecting performance, one more so than the other. The first is the number of events. The more events, the more data that has to be queried. This is causing for a few slow queries on the page. A recommendation I found on the Modern Tribe forum was to upgrade the hosting account. The person answering assumed the account was on shared hosting, which yours is. In your case, you’re on a plan that has a low number of resources. However, I’m not completely convinced that the hosting plan is the problem in your case. To be sure, I’ve temporarily switched you to the next plan up that provides a higher allotment of various system resources. I’m going to leave it like this for a few days so you can run your site and see if you’re still having problems. From my perspective, the page loads in anywhere from 7-13 seconds, which would be slow for any other page but in your case you have 3400 queries running to make up the data on the calendar page. For the issue with the plugin, I suggest contacting Modern Tribe so they can check into the query and get that corrected. I suspect that it’s affecting everyone who uses the plugin but it may not have been reported yet. I’m going to leave your ticket on hold for now so I can check back in a day or two.
Clearly, this needs to be addressed immediately and not be waiting for a maintenance release down the road. If it is affecting other sites like it is affecting me, it is bad news!!
I opened another ticket here https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/aggregator-not-preserving-local-changes-on-facebook-import/#post-1263118 with all of the detailed login information and description of issues I’m currently having and what I’ve done to try to resolve. I am going to back out of the conversation on this thread and focus on the other since it has multiple EA issues listed on that thread. If you could take a look at it and respond there I would appreciate it.
Thanks
