Events template disappears when Elementor plugin is active – Part Deux!

    Having a similar issue to https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/events-template-disappear-when-elementor-plugin-is-active/page/2/#post-17813888 and tried responding there but the WordPress moderators in their infinite wisdom would rather have multiple tickets about the same issue with variations than more than one of us responding to a single issue (with variations) to cut down on the number of tickets you people have to respond to. Whatever.

    It’s very simple. Elementor not active: events calendar works perfectly. Elementor Active, Events Calendar stops displaying its in-page widgets for Organizer, Venue, etc and the header breaks. We have had to roll back to The Events Calendar 6.3.7 ( An insecure version) because the bug was introduced in 6.4.0 and still not yet resolved by 6.5.0.1. PHP version is 8.1.x, wordpress is current, elementor pro is 3.21.3.

    We have confirmed, (though our comments were deleted from the other post so I am attemtpting to recreate this from memory) that with 6.5.0 (and now .1) active, when you go to the Templates>Starter Templates>Single Event Template the assigned template is “The Events Calendar – Starter”, however have also noticed that if we click the tiny “All” button to show all templates, the upper list of tabs changes dramatically and now also includes both “Single Event” and “Single Event Template” which are assigned as follows:

    Single Event Template – The Events Calendar — Starter
    Single Event – The Events Calendar — Dynamic

    The other ticket has apparently been marked ‘resolved’ in the absence of activity let alone confirmation from the end-user that it had, in fact, been resolved. So here I am to report it is most definitely not.

    Your assistance would be appreciated as we cannot update past the insecure version until it is – so the matter has a certain degree of urgency.

    So finally going back to revisit this and am utterly unable to follow your suggestion about duplicating the event date widget and splitting it between start date and end date because I cannot figure out for the life of me how to edit that widget to do so. It doesn’t even seem to HAVE that option let alone the ability to edit the text of the title.

    I was able to, after a ton of css twiddling resolve some of my reported width issues with the venue section and map but your defaults seem very very odd to me, and on top of that it’s loading your defaults AFTER any customizations to the Elementor element css that I add, so I have to !important everything, (which is bad for obvious reasons)

    See screenshots with commentary: https://imgur.com/a/cOQKg5g

    It’s now at least tweaked into a reasonable semblance of the original (while still far far from it insofar as appearance and configurability and customization. This still needs work on your part, but at least I’m reasonably okay with letting this be live on the site now and can abandon the version with the security problems. But please, continue to address this issue, because this https://efmls.org/event/gem-mineral-society-of-syracuse-presents-their-57th-gem-mineral-fossil-and-jewelry-show/ is a far cry from the earlier sleek appearance.

    For the record, I do not, at this time, consider this bug resolved.

    Some of the out-of-order css loading may in fact be due to the siteground optimizer plugin which doesn’t seem to respect the wordpress css load-order, and this isn’t the first time I’ve run into this issue with that plugin; you may want to talk to those folks https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/sg-cachepress/ about it.
