I had the same thought, as I can get the contents with a normal curl and file_get_contents. Any idea how I could test this theory out?

I’m having the same issue with mine as well.

Having this issue as well.

This could be done with some edits to the htaccess file no?

Having this problem too. Neither the settings set in wp-admin nor settings set in the template tag are taking effect.

Nothing?

Usually for me it’s an issue with the functions file. If there is a blank line at the end of the file or beginning even it tends to die.

Try a different theme, ideally the default 2010 one, and if it works again it’s an issue with the theme.

I read the posts. 4 people are having issues despite you not being able to reproduce the problem, and the thread is still marked as unresolved.
I figured that was enough reason to ask anyways.

So I take it I shouldn’t try to use this plugin on 3.1.2?

I wasn`t able to get that to work as expected. What it did was take the first style and apply it to all the post on the first page, rather then just the latest post, and styled the rest of the pages in the second style.

<?php echo date("F j", get_post_meta($post->ID, '_ep_start', true));?>

This works for formatting the dates if anyone else needs this.

What I by the code example I gave is how I was doing custom field sorting. What I’d need is something similar for just post titles. What you have there doesn’t work out as I don’t have a custom field of any kind for this site.

Sorry if I’m being a pain. But hopefully this all helps anyone else trying to do something similar.

What I’ve been using was

<?php query_posts( Array(
'post_type' => 'ep_event',
'orderby' => 'meta_value',
'meta_key' => '_ep_start',
'order' => 'DESC',
'showposts' => 6
) );?>

But it shows past events and I only want upcoming events displayed in that query. I also can’t suss out how to get another query to only display the next upcoming event only.

Also, I looked into the date tags, but I’m not sure how too change the structure of the date format displayed. I think I figured out how to display the machine readable date, but not a custom format for it.
I want to have F l and S separately wrapped in a sup tag.

What I’m trying to accomplish is two things. The first is to display the next event upcoming in a featured area with the date and time as well as a permalink to the events page.

Secondly I’m trying to display a list of upcoming events only by date with the title of the link being the date.

Not sure if either of these are possible, but from what I gather it should be, and I’ve been able to do some rudimentary displaying of the events title and permalink. But do you have any suggestions on how to tackle these two problems?

Is there anything out there as far as even doing simple things like displaying a list of events? I’ve googled for articles about it, but I didn’t find anything other then announcements about the plugin.
