Hi,<\/p>\n
I’ve been running ECP since January 2014 on this site: http:\/\/livemusicproject.org\/calendar\/<\/p>\n
I am currently upgrading the event calendar plugins (Event Calendar, ECP, Community Events) on my staging site, making the large leap from 3.92 to 3.11.2.<\/p>\n
Until now, it has been possible to treat the cost field as a text field, which enabled me to support the following price descriptors:<\/p>\n
\u2022 $10-$25
\n\u2022 $20 ($10 student\/senior)
\n\u2022 $10 (age 12 & under free)<\/p>\n
In my general settings, I did not elect to place a currency symbol before or after the price.<\/p>\n
Looking at the latest updates on my staging site, I see that the cost field is now attempting to turn all price descriptors into a range, stripping out all formatting that is not a number (and at times, stripping out the numbers as well). Thus, all existing cost data is transformed when it does not conform to a narrow standard:<\/p>\n
\u2022 $10-$25 –> becomes 10
\n\u2022 $20 ($10 student\/senior) –> becomes 20
\n\u2022 $10 (age 12 & under free) –> becomes 10<\/p>\n
See testing event here: http:\/\/stage-seattle.livemusicproject.org\/event\/test-event-to-test-dolla-dolla-signs\/<\/p>\n
It appears this transformation is occurring upon retrieval\/display, and the cost data is, in fact, intact in the database. <\/p>\n
Is there a way to escape this sterilization process and maintain the integrity of my cost data on display, so that the hundreds of existing events on my site remain accurate?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1002478","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
