Hi Franky,
I have put together a site for a non-profit, peer-run group. WordPress and plugins are up to date. I am using your “events made easy” and the front-end plugins on http://thewarmline.com/
The site has a members only section where there is a full-page calendar with a volunteer schedule. The members only is done through the Ultimate Member plugin. The problems I’ve encountered with the 2 EME plugins:
1. Google maps not working. I checked the header.php for the hook, and it is there. It did work “out of the box” but after mucking about figuring out things, well, I’ve mucked it up somehow.
2. I placed the front-end form on the calendar page, under the calendar short code. I have added one trial event, but it replicated itself 3 times on the selected day. I had to go into the duplicates and delete them manually.
I notice that the front-end form does not do “repeats” for weekly or monthly events. Is this something that could be an added feature?
I am hoping to make the calendar a simple process for our volunteers, and keep them out of the back end as much as possible. Your plugin is very flexible and doesn’t prevent some aspect of managing events we needed that I couldn’t find all together in other plugins. Plus your support is awesome! Thanks for this.
For google maps: do you use the placeholder #_MAPS in your event format? Otherwise it won’t show.
Concerning the duplicates: is that consistently? Can you also test on a page without another shortcode?
Th repeat thing is something that can be added, but just isn’t so far …Hi Franky,
Yes, #_MAP is in the “Default single event format” but not in “Default event list format”. The map background shows up (I’ve changed it from the green colour through CSS), but not the map. It seems when I enter a new location, the longitude/latitude fields do not automatically generate, but they did when I first started using the plugin. I don’t know what I did to stop it from working.
I’ve just entered an event in the front-end. Oddly, the mini date picker did not pop up. On editing the event, the date fields are not populated in the back-end. This happened before, too. No duplication of the event occurred this time, so that seems to not be an issue any more. I deactivated all plugins except the two EME ones. Same thing: no date picker, and in the back-end the start and end date fields were not populated.
Still no Google map either.
Cheers.
Sorry, I forgot. I put the form shortcode on a text page. Same thing. No date picker. I entered the dates manually but it defaults to putting the event on today’s date. So, I edit and the start and end date fields are empty.
Thanks
The things you describe are typic for javascript errors preventing further execution (and so the google map doesn’t show, nor the datepicker).
Look in your browser console for javascript errors …Hi Franky,
I’ve finally checked, and there is an error.Error: TypeError: document.getElementById(…) is null
Source File: chrome://web-developer/content/overlay/javascript/overlay.js
Line: 7333I’m notsure what to do now. I disabled the front-end plugin for now as I could not get it to put an event on any other day except the current day.
Thank you.
Seems like a firefox web developer toolbar issue, see:
