What is the time stamp on the post?
Well one has a time stamp for the 6th of May but that is using the event calendar. I ran a test post and it worked so it must be something to do with the event calendar.
Any ideas on how to fix it?
I haven’t used Event Calendar in quite a while, but WP generally doesn’t show posts with future dates. Event Calendar will allow you to list the events or have them appear on the calendar from what I remember. So I’m not exactly sure your question.
Well I can view the category “classes” but not a single post from “classes”. “Classes” is the event calendar category.
I still don’t know what the problem is.
You need to use the special tag for the plugin to list the events. WP ignores future dated posts.
So what am I supposed to do?
Have you looked at the page for the plugin?

If you want the calendar you need to either swap the template tag <?php get_calendar(); ?>with <?php ec3_get_calendar(); ?> If you want to show a list of the events, you would add this where you wanted the list (ie, sidebar)<?php ec3_get_events(); />
I have that tag in my source code for the main page.
Say I have an event coming up called “webdesign workshop” in a weeks time. I head over to writing a post, set the timestamp to a weeks time and set the category to Events (which is what is set for the event calendar plugin).
Now when it is posted I expect to see it come up under <?php ec3_get_events(5); ?>. So I see that it comes up. Good. Now when I click on the event there I expect to go to the corresponding post. This is where the problem lies.
There is also a problem whereby I can view all the upcoming events (that is, with a later timestamp) in category view but if I click on one it does not show up.
I don’t know if this is the fault of the plugin. I think the ability to see it when in admin is purely because I can see every post.
This is an urgent problem that I cannot fix. I need some help please.
Have you emailed the plugin author?
No. I am not sure if it is a logic or a code problem. Should I contact the author?
