    Hi there,

    i use EME with Elementor, not sure its Elementor-related:
    https://blox:[email protected]/broken-wochenbett-rueckbildung/
    this page is kind of broken, i cannot even edit it anymore because it redirects immediately.
    This pages uses an EME Calendar

    Today, i realized the SAME happens when including following Text somewere:

    Die Wochenbettbetreuung ist m?glich ab dem [eme_event id=810 template_id=9]

    Meaning: The Service is available from 1. Oct 2020

    tamplate9:
    #_STARTDATE

    e.g. https://www.hebamme-suedstadt.de/wochenbett-rueckbildung/ would redirect to wochenbett-rueckbildung/ “browser will then try to access https://wochenbett-rueckbildung/ wich obviously fails.”

    PS: when editing the page 2 months before, there was no redirect…
    ofc. in the meantime Elementor + EME were updated

    EME only redirects if you have an event that points to an external url, so in your case your event with id 810 probably has the “external url” set to “wochenbett-und-rueckbildung”.
    I’ll add url validation for that setting for the next version to help people avoid making that mistake.

    Hi and thx for the quick answer!
    Yes it makes sense.

    Is there another “recommended” option to print the starting date of a specific Event somewhere on the page?

    Well, remove the external url-text (it is incorrect) and your prob is solved. For showing single event dates I’d suggest to work with an EME category (so you don’t need to remember or know the event id) but otherwise your method is ok. You can also use an EME widget to show specific info on events etc …
    Or if you want to keep all as is, the disable the EME option to redirect to external urls if present.
