Calendar Widget not working

  • I inherited a WordPress site. The previous site administrator installed the event organiser plug in which should list upcoming events or our non profit organization.

    However for the past 3 months when as we near the end of the month, the calendar widget will not display/indicate there are future upcoming events.

    Currently there are two widgets that display events on the site
    <img src=”https://i.imgur.com/sRgbPQI.png”&gt;

    The calendar on the left should show green boxes for each day there is an event, but when someone first goes to the website at the end of the month and click on the link to the next month, there are no green boxes. When I go back to the current month the green boxes are also removed.

    Is anyone having similar problems. I hoped the issue would go away, buts its happened in February, March, and now again in April.

    That’s odd – can you link to the site?

    Hi Isidora,

    I’ve just tried the site and it worked for me. Could this be a browser specific issue (I have used chrome, and will try other browsers later).

    I tried it on a different computer and took a new screenshot.

    On the new computer it doesn’t show Upcoming Activities or future events in May, June, July.

    Hi — I’m the “previous site admin” (current server admin) Isadora mentioned above. The problem is still occurring but it’s very difficult to troubleshoot since it seems to be intermittent. The image she posted with the empty “Upcoming Events” agenda widget is something that typically happens — but it comes and goes.

    Earlier tonight, the agenda was empty in the right sidebar, and the events happening in Sept and Oct were not showing up in the calendar widget on the left sidebar.

    I went into the widget, made no changes at all, clicked “save” — and both the empty agenda and the missing September and October events reappeared. But later in the day they disappeared again. Then reappeared for no reason I can figure out.

    I don’t think it’s browser specific. The problem has appeared in multiple browsers. It does seem to be worse at the end of the month (that is a pattern she noticed).

    It’s very strange.

    I can mess around with css or php if necessary, but I’m not even sure where this is coming from at the moment. Any ideas?

    Dear Stephen,

    I am having a problem with the agenda widget as the other user.

    I just tried to debug the widget and I noticed that today, the last day of the month, the page submits a strange query where both start and end date are the same:
    https://www.sacrocuoremondovi.it/wordpress/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=eo_widget_agenda&instance_number=2&direction=1&start=2015-08-31&end=2015-08-31

    I tried to change the dates, but with that trick (e.g. end=2015-09-30) I only get an event in the 2016:
    [{“StartDate”:”2016-05-09″,”display”:”luned\u00ec, 9 maggio”,”time”:”Tutta la giornata”,”post_title”:”Test di anni xx”,”color”:”#aa18a2″,”event_url”:”http:\/\/www.sacrocuoremondovi.it\/wordpress\/events\/event\/test-di-anni-xx\/”,”link”:”Visualizza<\/a>”,”Glink”:”Aggiungi a Google Calendar<\/a>”}]

    By the way, the event plugin is working correctly because the link https://www.sacrocuoremondovi.it/wordpress/feed/eo-events/ shows the events correctly.

    I am not sure it is useful, but it happened that I had to clear and re-set the check on the ICAL feature to get it working because also that link was showing no result.

    Thank you for your help.

    We are still having the problem on our site. sviciu, your info is interesting.

    I’m slightly confused now as to whether the issue is with the agenda widget or calendar, or both.

    @sviciu – I checked your site and the agenda widget had not navigation, presumably because there weren’t enough future events, so I was unable to check what you were seeing. To explain the URL, it should describe the range currently being viewed. Based on that it will try to find the next set of events before/after that range, depending on the direction.

    @litlnemo – it looks like your site is now using a different plug-in.

    In any case, feel free to raise an issue here: https://github.com/stephenharris/event-organiser/issues (it’s more likely to get noticed)
