I have created an event in EE4 on http://exela.co.uk/events/lifecycle-marketing/ but it doesn’t display. I have looked carefully (a lot) at the settings but I can’t spot an issue.

Hi David,
Its possible the theme is doing something unexpected with archives and/or single posts.
If you install the Theme Test Drive* plugin and activate one of the default themes through that can you view the event?
*Theme test drive allows admins to test a theme without switching the theme live on the site.

The event is visible in twenty fourteen but not with the theme of the site.
How would I make the events work with me theme?

Hi David,
I checked the theme and it looks like one of the themes that can be purchased from Themeforest, is that correct?
If so, there’s likely a fix that can be added to the theme to stop it from removing the filters from the WordPress content. There have been similar issues with other Themeforest themes. I’ll look through the archive of the other support requests involving Themeforest themes and update this post if I find an example of some code that might help.

This is the code I was thinking of:
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'remove_razors_content_filters' );
function remove_razors_content_filters() {
global $post_type;
if ( $post_type == 'espresso_events' ) {
remove_filter( 'the_content', 'the_content_filter', 1 );
}
}
It fixes the “Razor” theme from Themeforest. It might work for your theme too. If it does not, you could check with the theme author and ask them if they are removing anything from or adding anything to the WordPress content filter, and if they are, what exactly is the hook and callback function they’re using to do this.
Event Espresso 4 adds the event content to the WordPress content filter, so when a theme alters the_content() it can have the unintended consequence of removing the event content from the page. It can be worked around though by using a function like the one above.

Thanks Josh. I have posted this in the theme forum and I am waiting for a sensible answer!
