month_year_dropdown does not work

Hmm, you’re right it’s not coping anymore with a non permalink url scheme. Works fine when permalinks are being used like here https://test.icalevents.com/large-box-calendar/?start=20181201.

Quick fix until an update is up, is to enable permalinks – it looks like that is a test site?

Thanks for bringing to my attention – it’s also highlighted a deprecated function when permalinks are not used.

More puzzling.
It is actually generating the correct urls as per the next&prev. Use ‘inspect element’ to check the code. or see https://i.imgur.com/ixuajhZ.jpg.

so it’s just with the form submit that somehow WP loses the action url.
In googling this, it seems it happens. WP just tosses the page_id away and changes the form action to the homepage. Why? https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/86897/form-action-redirect-to-the-same-page

ok, thanks for looking into this.
and yes, the calendar page is a test page, but the site itself is not ?? .
in fact, the site is rather old (starting 1996), using wordpress from early 2000 years.
this is also the reason for still using the old, simple plain permalink structure.
As I read, changing that, might cause all sorts of problems, 404’s etc. , see
here.
I’m not sure, though, but ATM, I won’t change that on the live-site, maybe make a local copy of it and try if everything still works ??
