Events in other languages not added to wp_eo_events table using WPML

    I’m trying to make WPML work with Event Organiser. People in this forum seem to have had some success making this work but there is a fundamental issue that is causing issues: The original English event gets added to the wp_eo_events table when I create the post, but when I then add a translated post for that event, the translated post does not get added to wp_eo_events.

    This makes it so that querying by date and even showing the date on an event page not possible because the code references variables that come from this table. I suppose I could customize all of the code to retrieve the actual custom meta values, but it would be nice to use the native EO methods.

    Is there any other workaround for this or can you confirm that this is an issue that can be fixed in a future release?

    I’m using the latest versions of EO (2.7.2) and WPML (3.0.2a). Thanks.

    Upon further testing, I’ve focused on the issue a little more. Click the blue plus sign to create the translation of the event adds it to the eo_events table properly. The problem happens when using the Duplicate feature to create the translated post. When that translated event is published as a duplicate, it doesn’t add it to the eo_events table. Even Translate Independently after duplication doesn’t add it to the table. If I then update the date of the duplicated translated event, then it finally adds it to the table.

    So there’s the workaround to make things work at least… But it would be really nice if the date was added to the eo_events table when you duplicate the event for translation. Duplicating the event for translation followed by Translate Independently means that I don’t have re-enter all of the date data which saves time so that is the ideal solution.

    Let me know if you can implement a fix for this.

    Thanks.
