Calendar View displaying event name twice and not showing text on first day

In the calendar view the names are showing two times and the first day of the class has just a vertical line and the name is on the second day of the class. Is there a way to make it display so that either the first day has more than a hard to see line or to make the text show on the first day?

You can see what I mean on october 23-24 on this page http://kpl.jnv.mybluehost.me/build/?page_id=168

Hi there,

The calendar is displaying {event_name}:{datetime_name} so to remove that second name, edit the event and remove the DateTime name.

That’s a bug in one of the libraries used by the calendar since WordPress switched to using the latest version of jQuery. It happens when an event spans across multiple week lines within the calendar.

To fix that specific event you could set the calendar’s ‘First Day of the Week’ option to Monday so the event stays within a single line. Although it won’t fix it if you then have a 3-day event from Sat-Mon.

Another option is to install this plugin:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/enable-jquery-migrate-helper/

Then go to Tools -> jQuery Migrate.

Set the ‘jQuery Version’ option to ‘Legacy 1.12.4-wp’ and save.

That switches back to the previous version of jQuery which then stops this from happening.

We are investigating a fix for the calendar to see what the best way forward is.

Okay, thanks.

Are there any known conflicts with other plugins etc If I use the Jquery plugin?

My specific worry would be divi…

Unfortunately, I don’t use Divi so I can’t answer.

It’s likely you would know fairly quickly if so (parts of the bulder using JS, which is a lot of it, wouldn’t load) and you could switch the above option back.
