 * When adding a new date with the latest Calendar update, it reverts to today’s
   date and won’t save event.

 * Same issue here. I have tried reentering the information a couple times and every
   time I click Update, the date changes to today’s date and all my location details
   are gone.

 * Hi folks,
 * Thank you for posting. Can you please all confirm that you are running The Events
   Calendar 3.5.1? Also, have you checked for a theme or plugin conflict? We’ll 
   need more information to look into this further.
 * Please note that if it is a conflict, we may not be able to help. We want our
   plugin to be compatible with as many themes and other plugins as possible, but
   this is not always possible. If we do discover a widespread conflict with a popular
   theme or plugin, we will do our best to resolve it.
 * Best,
    Leah

 * Hi,
 * I’m running 3.5.1 on WP 3.8.2
 * I’m using theme Classic Chalkboard. I’ve been using this combination for 6 mos.
   and have been using your plugin for 2-3 years. Always loved it.
 * Recently, the date area of The Events Calendar just disappeared. I can’t set 
   a date at all. I’m reluctant to get rid of the calendar completely, since it’s
   a classroom site for my 10th grade English class. I’ll have to export it and 
   then import the calendar/assignments again somehow…
 * Any help would be appreciated.

 * I’m having the same issue – every time I click Update, the location details disappear,
   and the date reverts to today’s date. I’m using The Events Calendar 3.5.1 with
   the Weaver II theme, WordPress 3.6. It’s been fine for the past year. I have 
   disabled/deleted plugins to no avail. It also won’t let me add location details
   for previously published events.
 * I have a second site that is on WordPress 3.5.1, also with the Weaver II theme,
   but with The Events Calendar 3.0, and it works fine.

 * I’ve switched themes several times to confirm, and the problem continues on every
   theme I switch to.
 * I will uninstall Events Calendar and Reinstall in a few weeks (end of school 
   year) but I’m afraid to lose all my entries until then.

 * Howdy guys,
 * Thank you for detailing this problem. I am glad we were all able to find the 
   same topic. That will likely help us figure this out.
 * Would each of you mind posting a list of plugins that you are currently using?
   Perhaps there are one or more plugins common to you all, and the plugin is conflicting
   with TEC 3.5.1 for some reason.
 * Would you also mind checking your browser console for errors, both before clicking
   update and after?
 * Also the following is really worth testing. Could you temporarily try disabling
   all of your plugins except TEC, and switching to the Twenty Thirteen theme, then
   seeing if the issue persists? That will help us to understand the nature of the
   error much better.
 * Please share your results and plugin list if you can. Cheers!
 * – Brook

 * Hi, Was this ever resolved? It is marked resolved, but I do not see a solution.
 * I am having the same issue. WP 3.6.1 and Events Calendar 3.5.1. Cannot set the
   date. Always reverts to today’s date.
    Since this thread is 5 months old. I would
   assume it was resolved, but I still have the issue. Is it the older version of
   WP?

 * Also, it still happens with all other plugins de-activated. Do I need to find
   a new calendar? If I paid for pro would it work? This is very frustrating. I 
   think it worked until the last time I upgraded the plugin.

 * petalumapie have you tried updating your plugins and WordPress? That ensures 
   you are getting fixes for any bugs discovered in the intervening months, it also
   essential for security purposes. Both your install and your plugin appear to 
   be month out of date. Good call on testing with the other stuff disabled, but
   I bet updating will fix things since this issue was resolved for the OP. I hope
   that helps!

 * Howdy Ravikas kamboj,
 * Please open a separate topic for your issue. And if you can thoroughyl detail
   the problem and any steps you have tried to fix it. The problem in this thread
   was related to a very old version of our plugin, and has since been resolved.
 * Cheers!
