multi day event only showing one day (last day)

We have an event created on our Calendar (EE3) that only shows the LAST day of the event (it is a three day event). I have the start day and the end day keyed in properly, but the event only displays as the last day.
For reference, visit https://greenbankobservatory.org/events/ and view March. The Girl Scout event is supposed to start on 3/12 and go through 3/14, but the event ONLY displays on 3/14. I have set event start date in the event manager set to 2021-03-12 and end date as 2021-03-14.

Hi there,

We recently had another report of this and looks like its an issue from the library we use to generate the calendar. In short events that span across multiple week on the calendar show a thin line on the ‘start date’ and then 1 event section on the start of each week.

Your event spans across 2 weeks and ends on Sunday which is the first day of the the second week, meaning it’s not as obvious but that’s what is happening above.

One option to fix this is to use the jQuery Migrate PLugin here:

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

Enable that on your site and go to Tools -> jQuery Migrate

Set the ‘jQuery Version’ version to legacy and save.

The calendar should then load the events as expected.

We have a ticket to investigate this further but in the meantime, the above should fix it for you.

wow – that seemed to do the trick! (now I just have to hope that rolling jQuery back to Legacy does not break anything otherwise on our site).

Thanks a ton for the fix, and I’ll look forward to an update that will fix it permanently.

So – related to all of this (JQuery Migrate Helper), this DOES work, but now I have errors popping up on our site notifying me that JQuery is out of date, and the JQuery Migrate Helper is only a temporary fix … how close are you all to an update to the library for the calendar? It would be great if an update were forthcoming … soon 🙂
