Hi Pom,
Can you edit one of the events and tell me the Event and Registration Start/End dates please?
Also what do you currently have set for the ‘Date format’ within Dashboard -> Settings -> General?

Hi,
Is there any maintenance on the server? I tried to complete a test registration for the event that you shared and it isn’t getting past the single event registration page.
Was Event Espresso 3 installed through WordPress plugins or manually via SFTP or FTP?

I’m not sure I understand. There is no maintenance procedure on the server (It should be, because the website is not finish, but I reactivated it in order to let you help me 🙂
I can see you completed the form in the backoffice, but the paiement settings are not completely ok for the moment.
Is it possible that the problem is there?
From memory, I installed plugins via wordpress tool but I’m not sure
Registration start/end date :
2014-09-01
2014-10-02

Hi Pom,
After discussing this with @Sidney I think we’ve found the problem.
Can you open up espresso-calendar/espresso-calendar.php, go to lines 583-586:
$events[ $cntr ]['start'] = date("c", strtotime($event->start_date . ' ' . event_date_display($event->start_time, get_option('time_format'))));
$events[ $cntr ]['end'] = date("c", strtotime($event->end_date . ' ' . event_date_display($event->end_time, get_option('time_format'))));
$events[ $cntr ]['reg_start'] = date("c", strtotime($event->registration_start . ' ' . event_date_display($event->registration_startT, get_option('time_format'))));
$events[ $cntr ]['reg_end'] = date("c", strtotime($event->registration_end . ' ' . event_date_display($event->registration_endT, get_option('time_format'))));
Change those to:
$events[ $cntr ]['start'] = date("c", strtotime($event->start_date . ' ' . event_date_display($event->start_time, 'H:i')));
$events[ $cntr ]['end'] = date("c", strtotime($event->end_date . ' ' . event_date_display($event->end_time, 'H:i')));
$events[ $cntr ]['reg_start'] = date("c", strtotime($event->registration_start . ' ' . event_date_display($event->registration_startT, 'H:i')));
$events[ $cntr ]['reg_end'] = date("c", strtotime($event->registration_end . ' ' . event_date_display($event->registration_endT, 'H:i')));
Refresh the calendar page and see if the events are displayed correctly.

Thank you, it works fine now!
Can you explain me what the problem was with the original code?

It’s the date format your site is using, from this:
Date format : 29 septembre 2014
I’m guessing your date format is ‘j F Y’ – http://take.ms/51ZFr
strtotime() fails when using this format. So this line:
$events[ $cntr ]['start'] = date("c", strtotime($event->start_date . ' ' . event_date_display($event->start_time, get_option('time_format'))));
On your site is actually
$events[ $cntr ]['start'] = date("c", strtotime($event->start_date . ' ' . event_date_display($event->start_time, 'j F Y')));
Which causes strtotime() to return either nothing or an invalid value, which then confuses the calendar. So the modified code above forces your calendar to use a sepcific format, rather than the one your site uses.
