I am having trouble in that I have upgraded from the lite version which I was using for testing, to the Business License which has resulted in a problem with the events database. When I add my first new event in the regular version of EE, it numbers it sequentially from last event that was in the lite version (20). Then I add a new event. When I go in an look at my list of events, only the latest one is displayed (21). So I cannot edit any of the events prior to the latest one. I have deactivated and uninstalled the lite version, and installed and activated the latest version of Event Espresso. I have done the reverse, to find that when I activate the lite version, all the old events still remain. I then delete all those events, and uninstall the lite version. Reinstalled and activate the regular version. Same problem. I tried to delete the 22 databases named “wp_events*” and reinstall the plugin, but that did not rebuild the database structure. I have not FTP’ed in and deleted the “event-espresso” dir in plugins yet and reinstalled everything. Should I? Please help; the internal site launch is tomorrow morning, with a live launch in a week, and I don’t have a working events calendar for the client to test. Thank you. |
Hi Leah,
That is expected, the events are stored within the Database. This is so upgrading EE lite to Premium does not lose any of the events/data.
Are the events active events?
There should be only 1 wp_events table itself with multiple rows for each event. You should not need to edit this at all.
You could try replacing the event-espresso plugin with a fresh version incase the download was corrupt somehow, although I doubt it will resolve your issues. |

Thank you Tony, my responses follow.
This makes sense. It just appears that the Premium version is not “taking over”.
Yes, they are.
No.

Tried that… |

Find the option named ‘espresso_db_update’ in the wp_options table and delete it. Then deactivate and reactivate EE. |

This worked Sidney, thank you! |
