OK, I added the line above and below the shortcode and as you can see the first line prints then the shortcode crashes the page. You are correct, the shorcodes for the calendar add-on that I purchased and installed today work fine. What would you like me to try next?

After doing some digging around in the EES_Espresso_Events class I worked through the process_shortcode function and commented out all but the return. The test page loaded fully. I then commented out less and less until the page crashed. The line causing the crash was the following:

EED_Events_Archive::instance()->template_include( ‘loop-espresso_events.php’ );

After commenting just this line out the page loads and the events are show. I have a custom loop-espresso_events.php template, but renaming it so that it reverted back to the default didn’t help the crash with the above line being executed. I’m not quite sure why it seems to fully work with this line commented out, but it does. It even uses my custom loop-espresso_events.php template file.

Can you shed any light on this?

Tony,

I enabled WP_DEBUG inside the function as shown below. If this is the correct way to implement it then it didn’t throw an error. The page just breaks. If I am not using WP_DEBUG correctly then let me know. If I am, then please tell me what else you would like me to try.

public function process_shortcode( $attributes = array() ) {
define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );
// make sure EED_Events_Archive is setup properly
if ( apply_filters( ‘FHEE__fallback_shortcode_processor__EES_Espresso_Events’, FALSE )) {
EED_Events_Archive::instance()->event_list();
}
// merge in any attributes passed via fallback shortcode processor
$attributes = array_merge( (array)$attributes, (array)$this->_attributes );
//set default attributes
$default_espresso_events_shortcode_atts = array(
‘title’ => NULL,
‘limit’ => 10,
‘css_class’ => NULL,
‘show_expired’ => FALSE,
‘month’ => NULL,
‘category_slug’ => NULL,
‘order_by’ => ‘start_date’,
‘sort’ => ‘ASC’,
‘fallback_shortcode_processor’ => FALSE
);
// allow the defaults to be filtered
$default_espresso_events_shortcode_atts = apply_filters( ‘EES_Espresso_Events__process_shortcode__default_espresso_events_shortcode_atts’, $default_espresso_events_shortcode_atts );
// grab attributes and merge with defaults, then extract
$attributes = array_merge( $default_espresso_events_shortcode_atts, $attributes );
// make sure we use the_excerpt()
add_filter( ‘FHEE__EES_Espresso_Events__process_shortcode__true’, ‘__return_true’ );
// apply query filters
add_filter( ‘FHEE__EEH_Event_Query__apply_query_filters’, ‘__return_true’ );
// run the query
global $wp_query;
$wp_query = new EE_Event_List_Query( $attributes );
// check what template is loaded and load filters accordingly
EED_Events_Archive::instance()->template_include( ‘loop-espresso_events.php’ );
// load our template
$event_list = EEH_Template::locate_template( ‘loop-espresso_events.php’, array(), TRUE, TRUE );
// now reset the query and postdata
wp_reset_query();
wp_reset_postdata();
EED_Events_Archive::remove_all_events_archive_filters();
// remove query filters
remove_filter( ‘FHEE__EEH_Event_Query__apply_query_filters’, ‘__return_true’ );
// pull our content from the output buffer and return it
define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, false);
return $event_list;
}

Here’s the error. It obviously doesn’t like the fact that I have the pagination function in my child theme’s functions.php. I don’t even remember why I put it there, it might have been for a previous version.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare espresso_pagination() (previously declared in /home/orthahee/public_html/atsicad/wp-content/themes/Avada-Child-Theme/functions.php:21) in /home/orthahee/public_html/atsicad/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso-core-reg/public/Espresso_Arabica_2014/functions.php on line 39

I did that and it works fine now. Like I said, somewhere along the line I was told to put the pagination function in my child theme’s functions.php file but I can’t remember why.
