I’ve received reports that our calendar is not displaying in IE9. Here is the URL http://healthyalbany.org/blog1/class/.

Any thoughts?

Hi Rob,

Does your active WordPress theme allow the page to load up in compatibility mode? That’s the first thing I would check.

It does not.

Hi Rob,

Can you test it in IE9 with the twentythirteen theme active? You can switch themes as admin by using the theme test drive plugin

I switched to twentythirteen and it displays the same way in IE9. The calendar doesn’t display if the compatibility mode button is active.

Hi Rob,

I checked and it turns out that the calendar doesn’t display when the browser is set to view the page in compatibility mode.

Here is a screenshot of the page in compatibility mode.

Here is a screenshot of the page when compatibility mode is turned off.

There’s a way to make it so the theme will force compatibility mode off. It involves adding this line of code to the theme’s header:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
