Upcoming Events format issue

[Anonymous]

I just installed the update and now my sidebar with the Upcoming Events has html code in the first space.

Upcoming Events

#l #F #j #Y – #g:#i #A to #@g:#@i #A #_EVENTPRICE

#_LINKEDNAME

#_RECURRENCEDESC

Any idea where in my settings I need to fix that?

Thanks!

What are the format settings in that widget? And is that format in the first lines used or defined somewhere else?

This is what appears on the widget settings:

Events List: Upcoming Events

Title: Upcoming Events

Number of events: 5

Scope of the events

(See the doc for [events_list] for all possible values): future

Show events per period: Daily

Order of the events: Ascendant

Show Ongoing Events?: Yes

List header format

(if empty

is used):

List item format:

• #_LINKEDNAME
• #l, #F #j, #Y
• #g:#i #A to #@g:#@i #A

List footer format

(if empty

is used):

Just tried it here with those settings: all ok.

But can it be that the format shown at the beginning:

#l #F #j #Y - #g:#i #A to #@g:#@i #A #_EVENTPRICE<br> #_LINKEDNAME<br> #_RECURRENCEDESC

is defined somewhere else (another setting)? Maybe that’s causing problems, but so far I didn’t find that.

Not sure, but I’ll keep looking and post if I finally come across a solution. ~Thanks!

Ah ha! It turns out that I had the html code typed into the EME settings under the “Default Event List Format Header.” As soon as I removed it from there it solved the problem. Obviously when I was updating the defaults for creating events I assumed it went into that location as well as the next “Default Event List Format” because I didn’t realize that the header was what linked to the Upcoming Events widget. Good to know! Won’t make that mistake twice. 🙂

I think this is a new change I also spotted. Previously my widget was only displayed as I defined in my widget code, but now (since the last upgrade) it is picking up the default header in EME settings and the classes there define the css styling so it looks very different.

I did a quick test and it looks like the widget now has:

{list Header set in widget}

(list header set in default)

format set in widget

{list footer set in default settings}

{list footer set in widget}

Was this intended? I will need to re-work my css to fix this if so

Thanks

No that’s not as it should be. This should fix it (I’ll release 1.2.3 for this):

Hi – just upgraded to 1.2.3 and I don’t think this is fixed. Now it looks like

{list Header set in widget}

(list header set in default)

format set in DEFAULT

{list footer set in default settings}

{list footer set in widget}

[Franky]

Arghh … I’ll try again. I was sure I got it.

[Franky]

Ok, found it and will release this evening. To fix it now, go into eme_events.php, around line 915 and change the lines:

if ($template_id) {

$format_arr = eme_get_template($template_id);

$format=$format_arr['format'];

} else {

$format="";

}

to just:

if ($template_id) {

$format_arr = eme_get_template($template_id);

$format=$format_arr['format'];

}

[Anonymous]

Yup that looks good. Many Thanks

Ok, I got rid of the HTML code, but now I have recurring events showing AFTER they have passed. Example: Recurring class every Tuesday. Past Tuesday (January 28) still showing in Upcoming Events widget even though today is the 30th.

[Franky]

Can you tell me the settings for that recurrent event? Event begin and end date, recurrence begin and end date?
