Still struggling with calendar advancing issue

[Anonymous]

Fresh install of WP, default theme, eme the only plugin, checked the header/footer issue. Tried with several fresh installs, including older versions, still can’t get it to work. What am I missing?

Seems to work fine if I click on “Events”. But don’t use that page in your menus. Create new pages and use the available shortcodes, see http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/?cat=17

Don’t forget to change the EME “format” settings to your liking. See also http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/?cat=23

Curious that it works fine for you, but not me. I wonder if it is a browser setting or something. I’ve tried IE8, IE9, Firefox, and Safari (on 2 different computers and an ipod touch, in multiple locations in case it was a local network thing.) and still can’t get the months to advance to next or previous with any of the setups. I guess that if you can get it to work, it must not be a server or code issue – I’ll keep digging on the client-side settings…. know of any hints?

Yes, I’ll build separate pages and customize the format once I figure out the basics.

Hmmm … no javascript errors inthe theme, so it might be a bug. But as said before (and also on many forum postings): don’t use the events page directly in your menu. I’ll check it out, so for now it’s a bug. But just create a new page using [events_calendar] as a shortcode and see if that works.

Made a custom page on the site (as I had already done with one of the previous attempts to get this to work a few days ago) and still the same result. The calendar displays but won’t change months.

Was thinking it could perhaps be the server running php 5.2.14 instead of the 5.2.4 “required” for current release of wordpress. But installed a previous release of WP that could handle down to PHP 4.3 – same result.

All the other features I’ve tried out so far (though admittedly I haven’t gotten too far yet) have worked great. It seems that the only function not working is the changing of the months on the calendar — small but essential part of visualizing when events are scheduled.

I have a few days coming up that I will be too busy to do much with this until later next week. In the mean time, if you want to get in and tinker with it, I’ve created an admin account for you and will email you the pw.

Thanks!

Ok, found it:

when going back/forth in the calendar, ajax requests happen like this one:

http://www.bsatroop228.org/wp?eme_ajaxCalendar=true&calmonth=9&calyear=2011&full=1&long_events=0&category=0&author=&contact_person=&location_id=

but on your site this results in a “302” response, redirecting to:

http://bsatroop228.org/wp?eme_ajaxCalendar=true&calmonth=9&calyear=2011&full=1&long_events=0&category=0&author=&contact_person=&location_id=

(without the “www”).

This causes the ajax query to fail (redirects are not followed). Fix this and you should be ok.

THANKS FRANKY!!!

For others who stumble into this thread, the issue was in the WordPress General Settings window. When typing the WordPress address, the www must be left out.
