 * In the single page of an event I see an error in the sidebar area:
 * Warning: date() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given in /web/htdocs/www.
   matrimonioabologna.com/home/wp-includes/functions.php
 * Errors there aren’t in other pages with the same widgets
 * Thank you,
    Maurizio

 * OK…
 * Are you using the QEM widget or are you using a shortcode in a text widget?
 * It’s just that I can’t replicate the bug so I’m not sure how to fix it.
