Calendar Doesn't Show All Event Dates

Hello,
I have a major issue with the calendar. It doesn’t show all of the dates that a multi-day event covers. For example I have an event that goes for four days. The calendar only shows that it spans two days.

Please help.

Thanks,
Ian

I’m trying to reproduce the problem, but haven’t been able to yet. Can you provide a link to your calendar page?

Hello Sidney,

You can see it here:

Calendar: https://www.lospoblanos.com/events-calendar/

Event Details Page: https://www.lospoblanos.com/events-calendar/event-details/?regevent_action=register&event_id=536

The event is set as October 5th – 13th in the WP back-end but displays only as October 5th – 6th on the front-end calendar. It’s the Balloon Fiesta event.

Thanks,
Ian

Hi Ian,

This would be a really good set of events to try out the new Calendar that we have been working on. It’s been mostly re-written to squash out the bugs like the one you’re reporting. We’re pretty excited about it.

You can download the new calendar beta from your account page after you opt into the Pre-release channel.

After you deactivate the old calendar add-on and activate the new one you’ll want to go to the Event Espresso>Calendar settings page and reset/have a look over the new options as there are a few new options there.

Hello Josh,

Thanks for the reply. I have installed the most recent beta version of the calendar plugin and am having the same issue. The event appears on the weekends but not on the weekdays within the duration of the event. This is a big issue, since this is a major event. Can this issue be fixed? I have reset the calendar options and am now using 2.1.0.BETA.

Thanks,
Ian

This issue appears to be fixable by inputing start and event times for this event. The calendar requires event times to be entered in order to work as expected.

Hello Josh,

I have added start and end time for the event. The issue persists.

Best,
Ian

Hi Ian,

I checked again and I think I’ve found the issue. In the custom.css file ~ line 811 there is this css rule:

.fc-event {
max-width: 70px !important’
}

This is forcing all events on the calendar to display no wider than 70 pixels. If you remove this rule the multi day events will display as expected. Here’s a screenshot to help illustrate.

D’uh, geez I should have caught that. Thanks Josh!

Best,
Ian
