Typed dates wrong and I can not erase, because it does not appear on the agenda, only in the widget. How do?
I did the upgrade from version and when I click the next or previous months, the calendar does not appear. Some new version of the defect?
[use the google translator, forgive the mistakes and if I do not understand]
These entries can be deleted or edited manually through the database admin.
I’ve got the same problem, also for complete entries. It doesn’t show the tooltip or date or time in the widget and worse, nothing in the calendar! Looks like I’ve got to rollback to some older version
file_get_contents() expects at most 2 parameters, 3 given in xxxxxx/wp-content/plugins/events-calendar/ec_calendar.class.php on line 39
why is this?
I have put the widget version 6.2 and returned to work. I will not make the upgrade to version 6.3. But I do not know in which file I must draw the entries that entered with errors. It would be very good if the calendar was a place where it could erase our mistakes.
I am checking on the file_get_contents() error. What version of php are you running?
I run PHP 5.2.5
Luke,
The calendar still keeps disappearing from my sidebar when i click on previous or next month
Firthermore, if I click on an event, the tiny pop-up box shows me my frontpage (splashpage)
I use your version 6.3, WordPress 2.5.1
mine too. it was not the case before but now its disappears.
How to change first day of week, form Sunday to Monday?
@ B166er
I guess with the following:
Since the Calendar uses the wordpress PHP date stamp, you should change this in the wordpress admin panel => settings=>”week starts on”on the bottom of the page.
I hope this is helpfull
Hello, Luke!
I do not know if the answer you gave was for me. Tried the file ‘file_get_contents() error’ in the directory: xxx / wp-content / plugins / events-calendar / and it does not exist. Open events-calendar.php, as well as in other files in the hope of finding the error in any line, but it’s not there. The version of PHP from my provider is 4.4.7. I went back to using version-calendar 6.0.12 events. I do not yet know what to do. [forgive the mistakes of language]
@ulisses and costas,
If you are getting the error “file_get_contents() expects two parameters”, it means that you are using a version of PHP which is less than 5.0.
In PHP 5.0 the function accepts 3 parameters.
In PHP 5.1 the function accepts 5 parameters.
(There is also a change in PHP 6.0 which we don’t need to go into here.)
The solution for now would be to comment out those lines. (I can show you where if you’d like). Everything will (should) work fine.
Ron
@Joop,
Your problem of the calendar disappearing is related to the same problem as ulisses and costas mentioned. It’s in the same routine.
The solution would be the same as I mentioned to them in the previous message.
Luke may want to put out a special version for this fix. I’ll wait and see what he wants to do.
Ron
@Prasannah,
Just to be clear, your problem is events that don’t show up and can’t be edited. Is that correct?
You shouldn’t be having a problem with the calendar disappearing when you go from month to month, right?
Ron
no. the calendar is disappearing when going from one month to the other. i dont know why, but its the first time that happened. older versions were working fine.
@ronbme
please tell me the solution for the older versions of php.
Costas
costas,
Luke is preparing a fix for this problem as so many people are having it. (The problem is with older versions of PHP.) The fix will let the routine work with older and newer versions of PHP.
Ron
ok. no problem. thanks a lot for the help.
Yuuuupyyyy!

Thank you, Ron, for the answer.
As I do not understand the language PHP, yes, I would like you to show me how and where to place that line. [I will ask my ISP when they will be able to upgrade to a newer PHP]. Assuming that does not give certain, will continue to use the 6.0.12 version of the schedule because I liked it very much.
Thank you for help.
ulisses and costas,
Luke has already fixed the problem and I am testing it. I don’t see any problems with it and I am using PHP 5.2, but I know it will work with PHP 4.0 also.
Even if your host upgrades PHP, (which is a good thing), you will still be ok with this next version, i.e. you won’t have to reinstall anything with the Events Calendar.
Ron
hello bro..firstly, good work with the plugin! helps alot
one thing, i’m using the deepblue theme by mattbob and its not widget-aware..i did place the workaround in the sidebar file but it only showed the calendar as it is..event the button to skip to previous month/next month is not there..and it also doesnt highlight the date that has events in it..and even if i have added an event to the database, it doesnt show it in the calendar
here’s a screenshot

Thank you, Ron.
I await the new version with enthusiasm.
ulisses,
Thanks. It will be worth the wait.
Also, I was able to replicate your error with entering the wrong date. I entered a date of 05-24-2008 which should have been 2008-05-24. It stored a date of “0000-00-00″ in the database. I corrected it in the database and it was fine. (I had to work to get the wrong date in.) I always use the pop up calendar to enter the dates, but there probably should be some error checking on the date field.
Ron
Error checking will be added very soon.
i have asked my provider to move my site to an php 5 server rather than php4 which is now.
i hope this will solve the problem with the ec.
How about my second problem about the pop-up showing my splashscreen? Is that related to the “my-calendar-is-a-shy-one-it-disappears-when-clicked-onthingie” as well?
Greetz,
Joop
Hahaha …
My student saw the recital marked on the calendar [wrong] and went through an email fighting me.
Make favour of the floor immediately with the new version, but we will have to fight a Karate.
Hahaha!
As expected …
Luke,
i was wondering whether i could have two copies versions of the same time in my site?
I would like to have a calendar and event list for my conferences that I will be attending.
And i would laso like to add some more details like
conference dates, venue, Paper submission date, abstract submission date. I would also like to sort it by a date lets say by submission date or by abstract submission date.
is it difficult to do?
@Costas,
I think you may be able to do part of what you want to do now. In the description part of the event form you can add html tags, like
Submission Date:, which is entered as <strong>Submission Date:</strong>
You can even include a photo.
If you want to see what you can do, you can go to my test site, http://www.web-eagle.com/Wblog2/.
The point is that you can make the description part look like many different fields just by giving them html tags.
As for having a calendar and an events list on the same page, I’ll let Luke handle that. That has a lot to do with WordPress 2.5.1.
As to sorting, are you referring to the events list or something different?
Ron
I am having a hard time getting my calendar to write out the days of the week. I have a wide area that needs to be filled and my calendar is too small with just the letter representing the day. I tried looking at the PHP date functions and making changes within the settings, but it had no effect. I appreciate any suggestions that you can provide. Thanks! Josh
Luke and Ron!

The schedule is perfect. The errors corrected. Version 6.3.1 is perfect. Great the option of 30 in 30 minutes and the color of date. I have the fixes and is working perfectly.
Congratulations. This schedule is great!
I am very happy!
A strong handshake!
And once again apologize for the mistakes of the language.
[Even though there Google!]
Congratulations!
I am so sorry to post again, but I seem not to get an answer, nor is my problem solved with the newest version 6.3.1
Would you please be so kind to look on my site and help me with the problems I described earlier?
http://www.galanor.com.
1. When I click on the sidebar calendar month, it disappears.
2. When I click on a event, a small popups show me a part of my website’s first splash screen.
I am stunned and want to use this great plugin
Joop
Thanks for the response for my earlier post. I got it to display more of the name of the day by increasing the value within php to 3. Only 1 more problem. My posts are not displaying on the calendar or widget when I post them. Also, some of my dates from a previous version ARE showing on the wiget and the big calendar for future months, but only the wiget for the current month. Any ideas what could be causing this? Thanks so much!
@Joop,
If you have installed the newest version (6.3.1), deactivate it and then reactivate it.
If you have not installed the latest version, I would recommend that you delete the events-calendar folder and then install the version 6.3.1.
The fix for the problem you have having is in version 6.3.1.
Ron
Thanks, that seemed to make all of the ones show up on the calendar. I deleted all of the old posts, and realized that it is not adding new posts. I enter all of the info, click add, the page reloads without the event showing on either the calendar or widget. I am sorry to be so much trouble. Thanks
@ron
I did all:
Del old version
Dropped sql
Upload new version
Activated plugin
Still same problem
@joop,
Do you have any events? Do you know if your database table was set up?
Ron
If it helps, my hosting is done through Yahoo. My brother hosts his site with Yahoo and is having the same problem. It there anything I can can ask them to do on their end that will help? Thanks.
@Josh,
Sometimes the host can make a difference, particularly if you are on an overcrowded server. Then all kinds of strange problems can happen.
You say that you deleted all the old “posts”. I assume that means “events”, right? If that is the case, then the database table was set up at some point. Can you go into your table and actually see data?
Do you clear your browser cache after you make changes?
If you’re not able to enter new events, then that is the first problem which needs to be solved.
Ron
Allright, from the beginning:
-Removed widget in wordpress 2.5.1
-Deactivatred plugin in wordpress
-In SQL, dropped Table WP_eventscalendar_main
-In SQL, removed posts which were created by events calendar
-Removed events calendar directory locally on pc in plugin directory wordpress
-Removed events calendar directory remote in plugin directory wordpress
-Downloaded E.C. 6.3.1
-unzipped E.C. 6.3.1
-uploaded E.C. 6.3.1
-activated E.C. 6.3.1
-Created events, created a post for event as well
-Checked SQL if table was made & filled with event (2 actually)in WP_eventscalendar_main
-Placed Widget in sidebar
** Left everything default (no tuning under options, no modified css, nothing!)**
Clicked on Event, Same story as described earlier

Clicked on Month, Same story as described earlier
I am lost right now
Sowwy for being a hard case
I am gonna go so far to send you my login, just to let you look
I sent a mail to luke, hope it helps. Cu you tomorrow (it is 23:30 here;-) )
I’m running the latest… 6.3.1 and it is working great so far. One question:
Is it possible to have the Calendar’s month displayed for a month where there is actual events? For example, I have events listed for June and nothing for May. Visitors see May and see no events so they assume there are no upcoming events. I would rather it show first “eventful” month.
Comments:
1) I did test and was able to put in hyperlinks. For users not familiar with the html code, it might be nice to include hyperlink fields in the event creation.
2) I happen to also have a YouTube widget, which is just above the Events Calendar widget. When I had the calendar set to Events, the tooltips appeared underneath the YouTube widget. It would be nice if the events tooltip would be located in the same place as the calendar tooltip, which is more centered on the screen.
how can I activate spanish version of your calendar V 6.3?
Thanks in advance.
Daniel
Hi!
how can I change english version of your calendar
V 6.3.1 development in italian version?
Thanks in advance
Laura
Hey,
Awesome Plugin. Quick question… How do I get it so that my calendar runs with the Correct Time Zine. I am based in NZ and it seems as though the Calendar is based on another time zone?
I uploaded your latest update but by calendar is still disappearing when I click to look at the next month. I deactivated, uploaded, and then reactivated the plugin. Am I missing something? I’m using WP 2.5.1
Events Calendar, is conflicting with wpDirAuth 1.3 (which allows users to logon via ldap).
When you enable the Events Calendar, the wpDirAuth reports that “wpDirAuth is now running in safe mode as to not impair the other plugin’s operations.’
The wp_authenticate and wp_setcookie WordPress pluggable functions have already been redefined, and wpDirAuth cannot provide directory authentication without having access to these functions.”
Any ideas on how to resolve this? as we need ldap login and your Events Calendar to work together.
Thanks
I will do some looking into this. I don’t know much about the other plugin so if anyone has any suggestions I am open to them
@zb,
If Events Calendar is causing it, there could only be one place that could happen. That would be in ec_js.class.php.
You can comment out the fifth line which is:
“require_once(ABSPATH .wp-includes/pluggable.php’);”
You might have a problem with Events Calendar after that though.
Ron
Is the version with language support soon to be released?
As always; appreciating your job.
It will be added but I have no time frame for this.
