Im using EE4

MySQL Versie:
5.5.31
Event Espresso Version:
4.6.14.p
Development

Hi,
This should have been resolved in 4.4.9 and as far as I can tell from my test site it is working as intended.
Can you provide the shortcodes you are using on the production site please?

I’m using it for an year calendar:
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS month=”june 2015″ title=” ” css_class=”jaaroverzicht_events”]
http://www.cooperatieacademie.nl/jaaroverzicht/
But i’m placing this through a do_shortcode
<?php echo do_shortcode(‘[ESPRESSO_EVENTS month=”‘.$month_uk.’ ‘.$year.'” title=” ” css_class=”jaaroverzicht_events”]’); ?>

Hi,
I tried these shortcodes and they worked:
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS month=”June 2015″ title=”” css_class=”jaaroverzicht_events” limit=”3″]
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS month=”july 2015″ title=”” css_class=”jaaroverzicht_events” limit=”3″]
However, I tested it via do shortcode (I used just the words for the dates, rather than variables) and it did exactly what is happening to you.
I spoke to a developer about this, and basically the ESPRESSO_EVENTS isn’t designed to be used via do_shortcode() in this sort of situation. The shortcode uses lazy load code to only load parameters for posts/pages it was saved to. In effect this speeds up the load time, but it disables parameters when using do_shortcode().
He recommends using the WP Loop or a custom loop (query) to grab the data instead.
You could use Josh’s example query (https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/e3c9540cd4ccc734e755) as a base for your own query.
For example I made this (very bad and very basic) example here: http://pastebin.com/T8qS5Jg6
All it does is loop through an array of dates and run a query and output the title and link. It’s far from perfect and is really not optimized.
Personally I would look to get all the dates between the set period and then filter and output them after you have them in an array as this will be faster, as my example simply makes a new database query for every single month.

Thnx for you great reply, i will dive into it. One thing what is strange about is: It does work on my development server with do_shortcode. Is there an explanation why it could work on my development server but not on my production server ?

Hi,
You’re welcome!
Honestly, no idea! It didn’t work on my dev server (local) and in theory it shouldn’t work on any. The developer who created it might have a better answer to that question, but I think you will still need to go down the query route (plus it will end up being more flexible for you).
