My minion had been more or less happily entering recurring events until “recently,” where recently means within the last handful of weeks. Then abruptly the Add New Event screen would not allow her to set anything under the Event Series section. She can click the period (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly, Once). The button highlights. If the window is scrolled down to center the Event Series section on the display, the view jumps to the top of the Add New Event screen. The options appropriate to each period are not displayed. She can click the trash can over on the right but not set any of the options.<\/p>\n
Her WordPress login role is Administrator.<\/p>\n
A second minion sees the same problem using her own WordPress login (role: Administrator).<\/p>\n
I see the same problem using my secondary WordPress login that has its role set to Editor. I tried setting its role to Administrator but the problem persisted.<\/p>\n
However, my primary WordPress login (role: Administrator) is still able to properly use the Event Series section to create a recurring event.<\/p>\n
It may have no relevance, but: both minions’ WordPress accounts did not start out with the Administrator role. They earned it after proving that they could be trusted. So their accounts were upgraded from Editor to Administrator.<\/p>\n
I have uploaded two (2) screenshots, one for my first minion’s Administrator account and one for my own.<\/p>\n
The problem has persisted across the recent upgrade of The Events Calendar and The Events Calendar Pro. She uses Firefox on either a Wintel or Mac — she sees the problem on both. I’m running Firefox 54.0 under MacOS 10.11.6 (15G1510). I had her login on my own desktop and the problem persisted — that’s when I grabbed the screenshot.<\/p>\n
And I just tried creating an entirely new user account with the Administrator role. It exhibits the same problem.<\/p>\n
I did think to download the Members plugin (as I have read recommended by Modern Tribe), but have not activated it because it has not been tested under the latest version of WordPress (4.8).<\/p>\n
I have NOT yet tried deactivating all plugins or reverting to the default WordPress theme because I ran out of my maintenance window.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1302992","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
