Events DB went through an automatic DB update. All events look OK in DB. I can pull up their link directly.

Calendar on latest version, deleted it and reinstalled from the website.

WordPress 5.4.1

Running PHP version: 7.3.17

Thank you,

Hi there,

None of the calendar assets are loading on that page, we see this with page builders as EE can’t detect its shortcode in use within the content when page builders are doing something odd to output the content.

So, may I ask how are you adding the calendar shortcode to that page?

Adding via a standard page using [ESPRESSO_CALENDAR show_expired=”true”]

I have attempted to wrap in [RAW][/RAW], but no luck.

We are using a custom theme.

In the default editor, no page builder?

Yes the default editor/classic editor I believe. Thanks

You could try adding the shortcode to a new page on the site. There’s a shortcode content tracking script and it may no longer be tracking the /calendar page.

If the shortcode works OK on the new page, then you could try removing the shortcode from the /calendar page. Then update/save the changes. Then add the shortcode again.

As an aside, the double quotes around true aren’t needed. e.g. this works:

[ESPRESSO_CALENDAR show_expired=true]

I created a new page and the shortcode [ESPRESSO_CALENDAR show_expired=true] seems to work. I thought I had tried that before and it didn’t work.

I removed the shortcode from the existing page and save/update. I added it back and resaved, but did not help. Also, the “select category” “select venue” drop downs appear, but the calendar does not.

Hi there,

I can’t view the original calendar page currently as it looks like its been replaced with ‘calendar2’.

You could edit the original calendar page and change the slug to something different ‘calendar-old’, then update the slug of the ‘new’ calendar page to just be ‘calendar’ again so it no longer shows 2.
