Calendar explodes if there are no events

Hi,

This sounds like a conflict with your WP theme, can you please provide a link to your calendar page,

Hi Benjamin-

Here is one with no events currently, (until 9/1/2016):

Thanks

This looks like a similar issue:

https://time.ly/forums/topic/unwanted-br-tags-spoiling-display-no-css/

When I compare the source code between a calendar with events to one without events, in the one without I see br and p tags all throughout the calendar code. I think this is what is causing all that extra padding, rather than CSS.

I tried to implement the fix suggested in the aforementioned forum thread, but it did not work – such would be a temporary solution anyways since the next update would overwrite it.

Thanks

Okay, I figured there must be something happening in /app/view/event/content.php which wasn’t taking place in calendars without events, so after a quick study, I found this line:

$content = preg_replace( ‘/\s+/’, ‘ ‘, $content );

and transposed it into /app/view/calendar/shortcode.php right before $page_content[‘html’] gets returned:

$page_content[‘html’] = preg_replace( ‘/\s+/’, ‘ ‘, $page_content[‘html’] );

After that line is in place, everything appears right as rain – any chance of getting this fix implemented as part of the core code so we don’t need to remodify after every update? Should I branch a github?

Thanks

I am glad you find a way through the issue and thank you for sharing workaround. I forwarded this to the development team.

Thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben-

It’s been 3 months but this fix still hasn’t been implemented – updates continue to break our site until I go in and manually patch the plugin each time. I’m assuming the developers have been notified that there is a problem and a workaround? Is there any word yet when this will be included in the plugin?

Thanks
