White box covering dates in upgrade

    After doing the upgrade as requested at the top of the settings page, my events list doesn’t look right. Although my page background is a tan color, each event has an opaque white box around it that covers up the date of the event and just looks bad.

    I am using a child installation of “Startup Blog.” WP and the theme are updated. I cleared my cache; I tried a different browser and cleared its cache too; I viewed it on my phone. The problem shows everywhere.

    I activated Twenty Twenty and things displayed okay, though it’s hard to tell since the theme background is white and the layout is different; however, the Events Calendar layout looked orderly and readable.

    I reactivated Startup Blog and the problem persisted. I disabled all plugins. No improvement. I messed around with as many settings and customizations as I could think to do, but no improvement.

    In the “Display” tab of Settings, when I uncheck “Use updated calendar designs” everything returns to normal (including listing expired events from oldest to newest, which I am glad you updated to the reverse).

    I printed PDF versions of various permutations to show you what “normal” and “abnormal” look like. (I made PDFs rather than screenshots so you can see the whole page.) I can send you the link to a Google Drive folder with the PDFs privately. Currently, it’s in the abnormal mode.

    I do not want to give up Startup Blog, as I find the slider at the top useful. I would stick with your old version of events but I don’t want it to break in some future WP upgrade.

    Looking forward to your advice.

    Thanks for your reply. I contacted the theme creator, and they gave me some code to paste in that solved the problem. The discussion is here.

    FYI here’s the code: 

    .tribe_events.entry {
  background: none;
  border: none;
  box-shadow: none;
}
.tribe_events.entry:before {
  display: none;
}
