The start date is missing! error out of nowhere

  • Plugin version: 2.2.96

    When editig event (changing Title for example) I get this error message:

    “Ach, some problems here:

    The start date is missing!

    Press the back-button in your browser to return to the previous screen and correct your errors”

    The start date is there, the fields “event_start_date” and “localized_event_start_date” are present in the POST network request.

    Example value: 10/06/2022

    What is the value of event_start_date upon submit? Since EME parses that to get the real value, the only possible issue is that that value is invalud (needs to be YYYY-MM-DD format, and automatically completed based on localized_event_start_date)

    No reply so closing for now.

    The format that comes with the calendar popup and then goes via POST message to the backend is MM/DD/YYYY. Date fields are not editable so cannot change the date format manually. On top of that the main WP settings for the date format is set to D jS M Y.

    Where does the plugin’s calendar format come from? Any suggestions for the fix?

    It seems something might be wrong then (if that is the submit-format of the field “event_start_date”). Do you have any javascript errors in your browser console? Anything in the php error logfile? A demo?

    @liedekef issue sorted. Another plugin was causing JS error affecting jQuery code of Events Made Easy.
