 * Hello,
 * Can you perhaps try updating to our latest Dev version? [https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/upgrade-dev-version/](https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/upgrade-dev-version/)
 * Alternatively, Can you perhaps try the following to test for a possible plugin
   or theme conflict?
 * 1. Make sure you’re using the latest EM and EM Pro Version
    2. Make sure your
   using at least PHP 7.1 3. To minimize possible plugin/theme conflict, Could you
   perhaps try and Install WP Safe Mode ([https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-safe-mode/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-safe-mode/))–
   Activate and Enable Safe Mode. Please make sure that on the settings a twenty
   series theme is selected. – When activated it would help you test as if the Website
   only plugin activated is EM and twentyseries theme – After making sure that its
   working properly, You could start adding additional plugin on the list that is
   activated and test again until you see which plugin is causing the issue
