Stopped working with WordPress 4.6

Update: I switched to a different format feed and it is now working
https://feeds.artistdata.com/xml.shows/artist/AR-7B3B206AEDA675D6/xml/future

Interestingly, I’m pretty sure that I switched away from the https:///feeds.. one to the one above at some point because the former was not working. Anyway, now it does.

marking as resolved

Dan – We experienced the same thing, however not with future, but with past dates. Can you let me know how you located your artist code? Ours is currently reading it via the band name, not the code.

Many thanks!

Found the AR code. However the plugin does not seem to want to render PAST dates, only future. Even if I change future to past in the feed URL. Have you seen this as well?

I don’t use the plugin shortcode for past dates, I currently use the iframe code supplied by ArtistData for both past and future listings, except for using the widget in the sidebar.

IIRC, I went that route because I had trouble with the shortcode for one or the other of future/past dates.

The different feed URLs are at [your artistdata Dashboard] -> Tools -> Data Feeds

We found the AR code, but I am not a fan of using iFrames. More flexibility with the shortcode. However, it will not render the past dates. Frustrating.

Thanks for the reply.

I just tried the experiment of

[artistdatapress feelurl=<‘XML Feed URL for Past Shows’ from dashboard>]

and it does seem to work.

I prefer the iframe code for the main shows listing because it shows information, like the ‘Also playing’, that the shortcode doesn’t.

We simplified the information, removing much of the data that comes through the feed. I tried your shortcode, but it did not work. Still shows current dates.

[artistdatapress feelurl=<‘https://feeds.artistdata.com/iframe.shows/artist/AR-33A5FF499DD36E7E/iframe/past&#8217; from dashboard>]

The actual feed URL that works for me for past shows is:

[artistdatapress feedurl=https://feeds.artistdata.com/xml.shows/artist/AR-7B3B206AEDA675D6/xml/past ]

This is the first one listed on the “Data Feeds” page

Appreciate the help.

On the settings page you are required to enter the “future” XML feed URL. It appears that URL renders both the future and past dates.

It looks like the latest WordPress update killed the ability for the plugin to read two separate feeds.

I tried creating a new page (that uses the main default template) and ended up with the same result. The Past shortcode renders the future dates. If I change the URL on the Settings page to the “Past”, both the future and past pages will show the Past dates. Can’t get both to work. Only one or the other.

yes, as far as I can tell you have to the the ‘feedurl=’ argument to the shortcode, as above, to select the past dates. As you note, only one URL can be entered on the settings page and that affects any time you use just the shortcode. But adding the feedurl= seems to work to override that.

Unfortunately, adding feedurl does not override it. I used the following on the test page and it still renders future dates.
[artistdatapress feedurl=https://feeds.artistdata.com/xml.shows/artist/AR-33A5FF499DD36E7E/xml/past]

works for me, even when I copy/pasted your shortcode into my page.

So bizarre. I can change the shortcode to any URL (cnn.com, does not matter) and it still renders the current dates. There is a bug in there some where that is forcing the shortcode to the future date URL.

I figured out the issue. Upon pasting it into the wordpress editor, it was changing the feed url to a hyperlink. Because of that, the plugin was ignoring it and using just [artistdatapress] (which was then pulling in the future date URL from the settings page.)

Thanks again for your help.
