Woocommerce search interference

Hi @softechx7,

Thanks for reaching out!

To help me investigate this properly, could you let me know which of our plugins you’re using?

Specifically, are you using:

• The Events Calendar (free) together with WooCommerce only?
• Or are you also using Event Tickets and/or Event Tickets Plus?

Knowing your plugin setup will help me recreate the issue on my end and provide the most accurate troubleshooting steps.

I look forward to your reply.

Hi @softechx7,

Thanks for your response.

Could you please try adding the following snippet using the Code Snippets plugin and see if it resolves the issue?

add_action( 'plugins_loaded', function () {
	if ( is_admin() ) {
		remove_action(
			'init',
			[ Tribe__Events__Rewrite::instance(), 'normalize_request_uri_for_non_ascii' ],
			1
		);
	}
} );

As always, please test this on a staging site first before applying it to your live site.

Let me know how it goes, and I’ll be happy to continue investigating if the issue persists.

Hi @softechx7,

I’m glad to hear the snippet worked!

Yes, please keep the snippet in place for the time being while we’re working on a permanent fix in the plugin. We’ll update this thread as soon as the fix is released, at which point you can safely remove the workaround.

Thank you for your patience!
