Next and Prev links not work

Mine were working, but now they are not working. They work within the widget, but not in the grid view.

@marram

Can you post the shortcode here as you are using it? Exact copy please.

@cmaudano

Can you do the same?

[gcal id=”6091, 6172, 6096, 6098″]

Can you do me a favor and remove the spaces between the IDs and see if this fixes the problem. SO it would become this:

[gcal id=”6091,6172,6096,6098″]

I’m having the same issue, and I’m only displaying one calendar. It was working before 2.0.4: website
The shortcode I’m using on that page is:
[gcal id=”8434″]

Click the Next link on that calendar, and the calendar disappears, displaying “Request has failed.”

For what it’s worth, I have calendars on other pages where the prev/next links just go to currentpage/#. The shortcode there is:
[gcal id=”8447″ display=”grid”]

Both calendars are pulling from the same Google Calendar. They’re actually identical in the settings, except the latter used to have feed settings where I could set a beginning and end time. Has that function been removed, or am I not seeing where it should now be applied? Sorry, I know that’s a separate issue, but it seems like it may be connected to this one.

Removing of spaces help me, thank you.

@marram,

Thank you for confirming that.

@shawnpprs,

“Has that function been removed, or am I not seeing where it should now be applied?”

There is no place for custom start/end dates with the newest version. The offsets work a bit different now.

I looked at your page, and it looks like you are still running v2.0.3.1. Have you tried updating to the 2.0.4 version to see if it fixes your JS errors?

I also noticed that the elements wrapping your calendar have a z-index. You might also want to check to make sure that there are no elements that are stacking over your paging links. Right now when I hover over the link I don’t get a pointer so it looks like it is being blocked by something unless you have the cursor changed for links.

Removing the spaces also worked for me. Thanks.

[gcal id=”6322,6323,6327″ type=”ajax” title=”Events on”]

Question: The documentation indicates that the shortcode should be [cal-id], but when I change it from gcal to cal-id I receive an error. Why?

That might be a typo in the documentation. I will look at it. Thanks for pointing that out and also confirming the space issue.

Here’s the link for the shortcodes: https://wpdocs.philderksen.com/google-calendar-events/event-builder/feed-information-shortcodes/

Thanks for the quick response. I think something weird was stuck in the cache, b/c now the links are working, and the code is showing 2.0.4.

Though an interesting note: on the page where I did not have display=”grid” in the shortcode, the link was dead in Chrome (Mac) and killed the dropdown menus, but everything worked on Firefox. I added the code in, and now everything works fine in both. Honestly, I only updated code during the big switch from v. 1 to v.2, so if there’s been a shortcode update since then, I probably missed it. I’ll look into z-index thing. Thanks again.

Oh I see the confusion now. That is the shortcode for the event builder not the actual shortcode itself.

That can be used with your other event builder codes to get the calendar id if you need to have it for some reason.

Marking resolved since this has been added as a bug fix in more recent releases.
