I have just gone through the test for theme conflicts and having gone through the first 1-3 steps and I then reactivate the original theme, the BLANK Theme, and still only get 1 line event from last November!
The Events Calendar has the same problem with both the BLANK Theme and the Twenty Fifteen theme.
I should emphasize that this only happens with the localhost setup.
Online this does not happen.
So how can the localhost setup cause the problem?

I have just seen that Events Calendar has a debug mode. If I select this where do I see any info from this?

Hi,
Sorry for the issues you are having. We can help troubleshoot this with you.
All the Support, QA, and the Development team run The Events Calendar on localhost installs and we are not seeing issues. There is no setting that needs to be changed out of the box to get it to work either.
Please setup WordPress Debug to see what errors are showing when you try to recreate the issue a couple times in this file: /wp-content/debug.log
It could be a PHP Memory Error causing this on the local install, but that should get the error that is happening.
Also, our debug shows in the Developer Console. Not sure how helpful that will be for this though.
Let us know what you find out.
Cheers

Thanks for your reply.
I have selected debug but how do I find /wp-content/debug.log?
If this was online I would ftp into the site and see the file there. How do I do this for the localhost setup?

perhaps the above errors do not connect with Events Calendar problem? They relate to a plugin called Hello Dolly which was not activated. I have removed this plugin but still get the 1 line entry in the Calendar.
?
Geoff
PS Hello Dolly is on the online site and still the Events Calendar works fine.

you will notice that the info above is dated latest 30 April ! Plus it was in the folder /wp-content/plugins not as you wrote /wp-content/ so presumably has notning to do with Events Calendar?

Hi,
Not sure then. I would look for more error logs on the server to try and find something.
Or you could try another local setup and see if it works there.
There is not might else we can do to help with setting up local setups or servers, but we will try to help out.

I could take a deep breath and totally delete the wamp setup and start again!

I can actually see the calendar events if I go Plugins/Events Calendar/settings and then click on the “Right here” link at the end of Where’s my calander !!!
But I cannot remember how to put this into the page I have called concerts.
How do I do that?!

I still cannot get the Events Calendar to show up on the page I have created called Concerts!
I have read endless posts in the support pages and still cannot do it. There are loads of people lost re this!
Please, please give me a simple step by step account of how to get the Events Calendar to appear on my Concert page.
All this is on a localhost setup. My online version works fine and the Events Calendar does appear on the Concerts page there so I must have been able to do it then!
I hope I do not have to wait until next Wednesday to hear from you!!

this so crazy! I can add this link to my Concert page;
Calendar
and when I run the site and click on this link the Calendar events do show.
How can I get the Events Calendar to show in this page without having to add this link?

Hi,
I am not sure I understand what you are trying to do.
Out plugin generates the Events Views as an archive typically with this url:
yoursite.com/events/
It is not possible to embed the event views (month, list, etc) into a page.
You have to change this setting:
Events > Settings > General Tab > Events URL slug
Change that to concerts and delete any page with the same name.
Resave permalinks and the url should work to show the event views:
yoursite.com/concerts/

I seem to have totally confused myself!
I have just got it to work as localhost by doing the following. This is from a post by Herb Miller (bobbingwide).
<a href=”https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-the-events-calendar-create-a-page-with-the-events-calendar-in-plain-
english?replies=12″>
1. Go to your admin dashboard and choose Appearance menus
2. Select the menu you want to change. If there is no menu then you will have to create one… but I’ll assume there is since your site has one as the first widget in the right sidebar
3. In Custom links type /category/events/month for the URL and “New calendar” or similar for the Label.
4. Click on Add to menu, then drag the new Custom link to the required position
5. Click on Save Menu
Is this an “approved” way of doing it?!
I see that there is a shortcode events calendar plugin but does Micro Tribe plan to release a version with this in it?
Cheers
Geoff
Hey @geoff,
Yes you can totally use a custom link in the WordPress menu as a solution.
As an alternative, you can also use the https://wordpress.org/plugins/the-events-calendar-shortcode/ plugin
To answer your question, yes Modern Tribe is looking at adding several shortcodes to their plugin line. I cannot commit to any date or specify which of our plugins will get these features yet, but stay tuned!
Best regards,
Geoff B.
