Housekeeping is one of your widget plugins: The Events Calendar Housekeeper. http://wordpress.org/plugins/the-events-calendar-housekeeper/ Adds tools to keep your events under control. This version targets Events Calendar PRO 3.x. Version 1.2.1 | By Barry Hughes
I read about it in the forum “Removing Expired Events From Database” https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/removing-expired-events-from-database/#post-27532
On June 17, I installed the earlier version that you guys released for Version 2.0.2. It identified 28 expired events but would not clean them up. I wrote a thread about that and was told to wait for the 3.0 release and then install the Housekeeper for version 3. Perhaps it did work for the ones that were expired once 3.0.1 of Pro was installed but we had a future event that should still show. So I don’t know where the problem may be at: Housekeeper cleaned out too much? Version 3.0.1 wiped it all out? or the database got munged somehow in the update?Heather,
If you made modifications to the CSS in the previous version, you should find the “events” folder in your theme folder, or if you have a child theme, in your child theme’s folder. Inside that you would have had an events.css file for your CSS changes. To make modifications for Version 3, these need to be renamed to “tribe-events” folder with “tribe-events.css” inside that. Add copies of views you want to edit to that folder and modify any CSS in that .css file.I did several hours ago but I guess you haven’t seen that yet. I thought this post might be the answer to my problem. The thread “Just updated to version 3 and all events disappeared!” was posted at 2:49 am Eastern time plus another thread at 3:25 am Eastern time called “Lost display of calendar on home page after update to 3.0.1”
Hmmm. All my events have also disappeared. I moved my site to a new hosting service and they told me to get rid of WP Super Cache because it was slowing things down. Would that have anything to do with why the events disappeared?
I have this problem also. I tried going to Permalinks and redoing them but I still have the problem. The page header has 404 Not Foundname of site (no space between Found and the first name of the site) This also appears in the browser tab that way.
I just updated to version 3.0.1 and found the same problem with the venues. I have 23 that I had to do one at a time.
Thank you. It works now. http://events.stcwdc.org
Jonah,
OK. I back-tracked to the original settings for the blog:
I changed the Events Settings/Template back to Default Page Template.
I set the Theme Home page back to Your Latest Posts.
I tried putting your php code in several places in page.php but it doesn’t work. Is there a specific location in the page.php file it needs to be or is there another setting that I’ve missed?Thanks.
Ah, I found the 2.0.1 release in the WP Plugins Directory. It just hasn’t shown up in my blog plugins page yet. Installing it now.
I’ve sent your message on to my events poster. I don’t know how often it happens. I told her a new release will be coming out soon and to keep an eye on the start/end times to see if they get changed to All Day after I upload the update. We’ll let you know.
I’m waiting for this bug fix also. What time zone are you in? I’m on the U.S. east coast and I am wondering when “by the end of the afternoon” will be here compared to your time.
See my last comments in my post “All Day keeps getting reset”. That problem may also have something to do with the permalink. Perhaps when a comment is added and saved, it is similar to when I updated the permalink that had an em dash in it. The comment is considered an edit to the post and the plugin modifies the permalink? An update to our event posts seems to reset the event times–hopefully it doesn’t reset all the data for the event. I’ll have to check that.
Additional information. I’ve asked the event poster to send me the steps she took. Meanwhile, I just realized that some activity I did yesterday may have affected the time change. I had to edit the permalink in an event post and perhaps just updating the post (for whatever reason) resets the specified times to All Day?
Here is what I did:
I got a report about a broken link on the blog that was giving a 404 Not Found. It contained escaped characters in it that weren’t recognized.
[code]http://www.stcwdc.org/wdcblog/event/winning-proposals-for-documentation%25e2%2580%2594beyond-the-words/[/code]I checked the post and saw that the title had an em dash in it. When the title was converted into a permalink, WordPress left the em dash and put hyphens in all the spaces. But when it got published, WordPress (or something) converted the em dash into the escaped character code. %25e2%2580%2594
To fix this, I edited the permalink and changed the em dash to a hyphen. Saved the changed permalink and clicked Update to get WordPress to change the link. (I’d done it once without clicking Update and it still had the code in it so just saving the edit to a permalink isn’t enough.)
The working link is now [code]http://www.stcwdc.org/wdcblog/event/winning-proposals-for-documentation-beyond-the-words/[/code]
