It works on IOS but not now on Windows Chrome or Edge browsers. * Thread Starter [lawriem1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lawriem1/) * (@lawriem1) * [4 months, 3 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-change-year/#post-18790519) * Hi [@tristan083](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tristan083/) again * I have just noticed that it does still work if clicking in front or behind the > and < arrows (but not on them). * It seems that the click area is not quite right. * Plugin Support [Darian](https://wordpress.org/support/users/d0153/) * (@d0153) * [4 months, 3 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-change-year/#post-18791012) * Hi [@lawriem1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lawriem1/) * I’m glad you brought this to our attention, I can see how this issue impacts your ability to change the year in your calendar’s month view. * I’ve created an internal ticket TECTRIA-1595 to address this issue and I’ve included your specific use case in it to communicate it to our team. * We prioritize bugs by taking into consideration the number of users impacted as well as how the bug impacts one’s ability to run an event/sell tickets.
