We have found a bug … or an unsolvable problem.<\/p>\n

The bug prevents you from importing a CSV into Events Calendar from the WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n

When we start the import process, regardless of the file type (or what we want to import for that matter), when we click “upload” to choose a file, we get the error “{“success”:false,”data”:{“message”:”Please provide the file that you wish to import.”}}<\/p>\n

The javascript error associated with the bug is: <\/p>\n

Uncaught TypeError: $(…).bumpdown is not a function<\/p>\n

Observations:
\n\u2022\tThis bug seems to be associated with the https protocol. One potential cause is that Event Calendar resources are being loaded over http and not https. However, I found no evidence of that this is occurring.
\n\u2022\tThis bug is recognized by other Events Calendar users but I wasn’t able to find a solution in any of the threads discussing the issue.
\nFor your reference: https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/recurring-rules-button-not-showing-with-crazy-javascript-error\/<\/p>\n

Threads I’ve read so far recommend the following:
\n\u2022\tRemove define(‘FORCE_SSL_ADMIN’, true); from wp-config – I did this
\n\u2022\tUse the SSL insecure content fixer plugin – we already have this plugin
\n\u2022\tAdd a custom function that will rewrite the broken asset urls to https – this did not work<\/p>\n

In our staging environment (https:\/\/staging7.rtoinsider.com), I saw the same error that prevents importing CSVs with Events Calendar. Strangely, after deactivating all plugins, and re-activating them one by one, the error vanished. I cannot account for this since deactivating and reactivating plugins without changing any settings should have no effect. And, BTW, this didn’t fix things on our live site.<\/p>\n

I saw that the favicon was being loaded by Events Calendar using an insecure link (http not https). So I deleted the favicon. This did not resolve the issue. So, now it’s back.<\/p>\n

Any ideas on what’s going on here? I need to import events for 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1207174","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nCan not upload\/import as I can't select a file -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/can-not-uploadimport-as-i-cant-select-a-file\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Can not upload\/import as I can't select a file -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"We have found a bug … or an unsolvable problem.
