Calendar shortcode returning blank

I am trying to use [ESPRESSO_CALENDAR] to display the calendar but it is showing up blank. I have deactivated all other plugins besides the Espresso and the Calendar plugin, and still nothing. When I inspect the page, the espresso_calendar div shows up, but on the page itself it is blank. It is also casting no javascript errors. When I switch themes it does however work, since I am using a custom theme, so my question would be how to determine the problem and fix the theme conflict?

http://site517/calendar would be where the shortcode is. We have it as pretty much just raw data at the moment with the EVENTS and CALENDAR shortcodes

Hi there,

There’s actually a few troubleshooting steps that are directed at the WordPress theme in the documentation:

If you’re not seeing any JavaScript errors, then it could be the missing wp_footer() function in the footer.php template.

Hi Josh,

Thanks alot, I don’t know how I misread other threads but I swear I had read make sure the wp_footer() was removed.. As soon as I added that it worked.

Oh you may not have misread, there may very well be a thread or two out there on the inter webs that say to remove wp_footer() from the footer.php template. That’s generally not good advice though.
