Events disappear!

[admin]

I love this plug in but I’m having an interesting (infuriating) problem.

I enter ~13 events without any problems, then things start to go wrong. I add in additional events and they show up in the admin panel/google map, but not the event list!

I’ve never had the old version of EME which is mostly the only explanation I can find for this problem. If you could help me I would be extremely grateful. My events list is here: http://theoceanproject.org/wordpress/?page_id=501 if you look at the event map here http://theoceanproject.org/wordpress/ you can see the phantom events that are there, but not on the event list (the Santa Monica event for example).

Help? Other info: the tech guy I work with had the EME database hooked up to our original event database somehow at one point. I’m not 100% on how all that works and I made him “unhook” the databases when the trouble started, but no luck. Is it possible he messed it up somehow?

Thanks.

EDIT: weird… so I just deactivated and reactivated the plugin (just for the hell of it) and then added a test event and it worked! It’s up at the top. Maybe this will help explain what’s wrong some how?

What this means is that your tech guy probably indeed messed up. It’s impossible to assess from here what went on at your site on a DB level. If you can reproduce this problem with a clean setup, I’ll be happy to take a look at it.

So I deleted it all and re-installed, and began adding new events again. Same thing is happening.

I have a slightly better idea of the issues. The events list will only ever display 10 events. I have 13 events in the database. When I delete one of the 10 displayed events, a new one (previously hidden) shows up on the events list.

Any thoughts?

That’s not dissapearing. It’s the default: only 10 events are shown by default. If you want more: use the “limit” option for the “[events_list]” shortcode. See http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/?cat=18

Wow, thanks, I feel kind of stupid now.

Is it possible to apply this limit to the default event listing page (that you set in the “settings”)?

I ask because my css makes it so that the tables don’t fit within the theme properly when I use the shortcode on a page, but it does work when viewed in the default event list page.

EDIT: nevermind, made it work. thanks for your help

though, is there any reason my big google map (with all the events) would work, but the individual place maps on the single event pages doesn’t? They worked fine an hour ago. I just have #_MAP in the Default single event format box.

Seems to work fine here

[admin]

that’s weird, this page: http://theoceanproject.org/wordpress/?page_id=507&event_id=8

shows a map on your machine? it’s blank here.

[Franky]

No, but this one does: http://theoceanproject.org/wordpress/?page_id=507&location_id=1

The page you refer to has the event description on it, but probably not #_MAP

If you want: sent me a mail with admin access so I can check it out (liedekef@telenet.be) but I believe you just need to play around with the placeholders.

[admin]

the weird thing is, when I take out EVERYTHING except for “#_MAP” it still doesn’t show up. the single event page just becomes blank. never encountered this problem before?

[Franky]

My latest comment stands …

[admin]

I would give you that info but it’s not my site and the organization probably wouldn’t appreciate the security risk (no offense of course!). Nothing I do is fixing it so I guess we’ll just do without.

Another quick question, is there a way to display the map with event balloons, but without the list of locations under it?

[Franky]

For the moment the location list is added, but it’s on my to do list to split this up.
