Currently the calendar just looks empty while the events are being loaded after a couple seconds, for example loading for March: Is there supposed to be a pinwheel while the calendar is loading? Is there a way for us to add styling so there’s an overlay or lower transparency for the calendar while events are being loaded? Thanks for your help. |
Hi there, Event Espresso usually adds 3 placeholder divs to the start of the loop, something like:
If I manually add those into the page and then switch months on the calendar you can see the spinner loads here: https://monosnap.com/file/R4QhuENskxilKJhDhG2jPYcgbib5c5 Is that just a standard page build using Beaver builder? |

Thanks for checking on this. That is a standard page built using Beaver Builder. The calendar shortcode is in a text module. I tested the calendar shortcode using the standard WP editor and the DIVs are inserted and the gear is appearing. But when I switch to use the Beaver Builder editor the DIVs are not inserted. Could there be a compatibility issue with Beaver Builder? |
Are you using the EE Beaver Builder add-on? (HERE) If so, it’s likely from this function: https://github.com/eventespresso/eea-beaver-builder/blob/master/eea-beaver-builder.php#L101-L108 If I recall correctly, beaver builder changed how they saved modules and that can actually be removed now but we left it in to prevent users with older version of EE/BB conflicting. Try commenting out line 107 by adding
Does it work then? |

Yes, the website is using the EE Beaver Builder add-on. We commented the line 107 and the DIVS/gear spinner is now appearing. Thanks for your help with this. |
You’re most welcome. |
