Maybe an htaccess issue? Is your htaccess file in place and correct in your wordpress directory?
The following permalink rewrite code should be included in your .htaccess file (since WordPress 3.0):
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
not sure if you’re working on it, but there’s some links that work others that dont. I would double check the ‘Pages’ tab in your settings and make sure that’s all set up right. You probably want to select your events page as before (or create a new one), but it should also work with no events page now as well.
Hey,
I managed to fix it so thought I’d post up about how I fixed it as it’s slightly odd and probably down to the way the site’s set up.
Basically, I had an old backup of the site on another server – where everything was working perfectly with the new version, so I tried everything I could to mimic it on my live development site – what I found was that the wp-options table was where the problem lied – so I’ve used the other development site’s wp-options table and it works perfectly now 🙂 Phew!
Only thing – #_CATEGORYNAME no longer works – is this still the right shortcode?

Yea – for some reason I can’t edit any of the categories when I was running the new version, there isn’t a menu link to do it! :s
I’ve given up and reverted to the stable version of 4 for now as I can’t seem to get the beta to work, I’ll just wait until it’s been through a few versions,
Cheers

Hi,
I’ve tried the RC1 now and that works fine except from the categories problem – which seems like an odd problem.
Basically, in the settings admin, categories is turned on:
http://meak.in/evo/em-cat2.jpg
But there’s no link to the categories section in the left-hand navigation (like there was in V4):
http://meak.in/evo/em-cat3.jpg
When I edit an event I can select any of the categories I had created prior the the upgrade:
http://meak.in/evo/em-cat1.jpg
But can’t edit them or add new ones. also the #_CATEGORYNAME shortcode (or any categories) don’t work 🙁 Any ideas? ta
check your user capabilities, chances are since you were on the betas it might not have added the capabilities when jumping to RC1.
