Can confirm I also have this issue.

I can’t reliably replicate the missing events so I just have to keep making events until one or more of them disappear. But my issue does appear to be slightly different than tanyawright’s the events do appear in the table seemingly properly.

I’m disabling addons and creating events and will post when I’ve got more information, I just have to wait until the systems not in active use.

Version 5.5.3.1, I may have had other event manager plugins installed I was evaluating many plugins.

I don’t seem to have an option to add categories. I looked at the screenshots on the plugin page once again just to confirm and it looks like it’s missing for me.

@dylan Barlett some events do, others still don’t show up, either in the calendar or the interface.
It’s the not showing up in the Calendar that had alerted my users to the problem.

Here’s a series of screenshots from a site that’s having issues.

No combination of filtering shows the missing events.

Update: Finally figured it out myself posted here just in case anyone has a similar problem with bulk import not working.

Alright, after banging my head against the wall on this one for a few days I finally figured out that the Bulk Import User Password (That one normally leaves blank) MUST be filled in ONCE to get the bulk import working, otherwise it incorrectly tells you it can’t find groups.

EDIT: I should note I’ve disabled IPTables & SELinux just to make sure it wasn’t one of those messing with the import.

Oh, I didn’t think about making a custom flag. I’m searching for how to create a custom flag but it seems “custom attribute” comes up pretty vague and I’m getting a lot of unrelated results. Any chance you could point me in the right direction?

Honestly I have no idea, I didn’t set up my own user account in the Active Directory. It’s not really my department I was only tasked with connecting this wordpress installation to the AD. My user is a member of the domain admins group though.

mokelock, you shouldn’t need a password in the bulk import tool you can leave it blank. You just need a username that has read access to everyone you’re attempting to import.

As for your Deprecated alert, it’s not an error it’s just been deprecated in PHP 5.5.X. That’s something for the author to change.

I’m unsure about your user group that gave me the most difficulties, I had to add users to the base_dn and only then did it finally import.

tuneo, if it helps I finally figured out why I was unable to get a successful import. My base_dn string was out of order. I had no idea that the order was important.

my string is CN=Users,DC=<mydomain>,DC=edu, having the group anywhere else in the string caused my import to fail saying it couldn’t find the group.

And the actual user group is default domain users;id:513 in the bulk import tool.

Doesn’t seem to cause any problems if I disable it, delete the site/user and then re-enable it.

edit: Or just enable it when I’m going to clone a template site.

looks like MultiSite Clone Duplicator causes the inability to delete sites & users.

The account was imported via an Active Directory plugin. I believe I’ve fixed what was causing that to not work so I don’t need to delete the account anymore. I guess that means this is “solved” but it must have something to do with that plugin.

Thanks dimagsv, I haven’t yet gotten around to installing it to test it yet. I am running on a redhat server though so I’ll let you know how it goes. Have you considered forking this plugin? It appears to be abandoned.

I don’t have a problem with bulkimport.php not being found, what does your error log say?
