 * Hi there,
 * I’m using EventGeek and it’s very cool and easy to managen, but, when I explore
   the web site that include the EventGeek widget, something goes wrong: it can’t
   be seen the pop up of the event on the calendar by clicking on the date, it appens
   only on IE8. Does anyone else has my same problem?

 * Hi ZCicc87,
 * It appears there is a javascript error that only affects IE. I’ll be releasing
   and update (hopefully later today) that should fix the issue.
 * Thanks for using Event Geek!

 * Version 2 (just released) should fix this issue.

 * Many thanks!
    One more thing, in the previous version I was able to put html 
   tag in the title text area of the EventGeek Calendar widget, now I cannot do 
   it. Is it due to the new update?

 * As far as I know, there is nothing in 2.0 that would strip out tags that wasn’t
   in 1.9.3. What html tag are you trying to use?

 * Hi,
    I use “<!–:en–>Events<!–:–><!–:zh–>事件<!–:–>” the conversion tag for language
   by qTranslate plug-in.

 * I can’t see any reason that would work in the old version but not now. In any
   case, I’ll see about adding a hook for the next version that will allow you to
   do something like this.
 * FYI, it would probably be a good idea to start a separate thread in the future,
   since this is a different topic than the original question.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi,
 * it would be great, I’ll stay tuned for new update. I apologize if I used the 
   same thread for sure next time I’ll be more careful.
 * Thanks, have a nice day!

 * I’ve added a widget title filter to version 2.1. Once you’ve updated, you can
   put this in your functions.php file:
 *     ```
       function custom_event_widget_title(){
       	$new_title = '<!--:en-->Events<!--:--><!--:zh-->事件<!--:-->';
       	return $new_title;
       }
       add_filter('gg_event_widget_title', 'custom_event_widget_title');
       ```
   
 * This should overwrite whatever you’ve specified as the title in the widget admin
   area with whatever you specify for the variable $new_title.
