Every other shortcode has worked so far, but the calendar is not showing up. I have purchased and installed the calendar plugin.
I have disabled all plugins, but that didn’t fix the problem.

Hi Christina,
This looks like it’s caused by a very common mistake on the part of the WordPress theme. You can see what’s happening if you look at the page with a tool like Firebug. Here’s what it looks like. So the theme is adding a paragraph each time there is a new line in the calendar script. The unintended effect is it breaks the calendar!
Sometimes, the actual theme code that is causing the problem is related to a function that adds a [raw] shortcode. So you might be able to wrap the calendar showcode in the raw shortcode tags and the calendar will appear as expected:
[raw][ESPRESSO_CALENDAR][/raw]
If that doesn’t work, the code that is causing this to happen will need to be removed from the WordPress theme.

Great! that fixed it. Also, when I click on the individual event bubble on the calendar it just refreshes the calendar page. Is there any way to make that link to the individual event?
Thanks!

Hi Christina
It looks like you’ve replaced the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode with the calendar shortcode. What you’ll need to do is put the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode back where it was before and create a new page to show the calendar. The [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode needs to be on the page set as the main registration page, or you will not have individual event pages.
