Title: "Loads forever"-issue Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # "Loads forever"-issue * Resolved [temp5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/temp5/) * (@temp5) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/) * Hy, * I just updated to v2.0.8 and now I get the forever spinning wheel when I want to change the view type or switch to the next week/month/etc. Unfortunately I really don’t know if it was working just before the update, but I know it did a week ago. (a downgrade will produce the same result) * I tried to deactivate all other plugins, and googled a lot around, but none of the suggestions helped. Then I tried to analyze the response for the ajax request. And here I think is the reason for all of this: the response is not a json object, but the entire html of the calendar view I want to load. From this point on I don’t know where to go next and would be really, really thankful if anybody could help me. * Thanks in advance! temp5 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-event-calendar/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-event-calendar/) Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) * Thread Starter [temp5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/temp5/) * (@temp5) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939332) * Ok, it seems the “Ai1ec_Abstract_Query”-class that manages the request uri had some issues extracting the request_type and so the type was always set to “standard”, which means: html-rendering. So I wrote a workaround that checks the request uri for “request_type=json” and sets the type corresponding to the result. Maybe not the nicest solution, but everything seems to work now! * Best regards, temp5 * [cefiar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cefiar/) * (@cefiar) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939407) * temp5: Can I get someone from Time.ly to contact you regarding that fix? I’d like to see if we can get that sorted so that it’s fixed in future versions ( even if the fix is different to yours). * Thread Starter [temp5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/temp5/) * (@temp5) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939455) * Of course you can! But I really don’t know if my solution will be of any assistance for them, because it really is a quick and dirty fix and was done in the old 1.10.11 and it seems that there are many other reasons that can lead to this behavior. * Best regards, temp5 * [pearl-grey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pearl-grey/) * (@pearl-grey) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939473) * Hello temp5! * I am having the same problem of eternal loading, and its not a plugin conflict. Is there any chance you think I’d be able to use your fix? I know some html/css but no ajax or javascript. Would you be able to describe to me what to do? Thank you, Claire * Thread Starter [temp5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/temp5/) * (@temp5) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939475) * Hello pearl-grey, * as I said: the fix is really quick and dirty and I don’t know if it will of any assistance for you, but of course I will try to help you (remember: I did this in version 1.10.11): Add the following: * ``` if (strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], "request_type=json") !== false) $type = "json"; ``` * after line 918 (“`$type = $this->request->get( 'request_type' );`“) in file wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-event-calendar/app/controller/class-ai1ec-app-controller. php and after line 188 (“`$type = $request->get( 'request_type' );`“) in file wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-event-calendar/app/controller/class-ai1ec-calendar- controller.php . This really isn’t a neat solution, but it does the trick for me and hopefully for you. * If you have any questions feel free to ask! * Best regards, temp5 * [Matt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mlindi/) * (@mlindi) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939569) * Upgrade to v2.0.13 – having this issue. Not sure why it is marked [resolved] here in the support forum. Clearly it has not been. * and yes – I have disabled all plugins and reverted to twenty eleven, so the canned response is not appropriate. * Thread Starter [temp5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/temp5/) * (@temp5) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939570) * I marked this thread as “resolved” because the workaround I posted before your post did the trick for me. The main problem with this issue is, that it only occurs to a bunch of people and under special circumstances, that, I think, the devs don’t know – because otherwise they would have fixed it already. * Have you tried my workaround? * [Matt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mlindi/) * (@mlindi) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939571) * Hi temp5 – * I am trying to get v2.0.13 working. unfortunately, your workaround does not apply. * I have found that applying a string filter in .htaccess to prevent malicious XSS string attacks breaks the navigation within ai1ec (even after denying permission to phone home during initial setup ) – there is a hook in there somewhere that hasn’t been properly terminated. * Thread Starter [temp5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/temp5/) * (@temp5) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939573) * Oh, sorry, I read over the fact that you use v2. * I really can’t say much about your suggestion – maybe you are on the right track, but maybe you found a complete other problem. * In my opinion the best bet to solve this “forever loading”-issue is to check the process where the parameters are extracted from the request uri. * Best regards, temp5 Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) The topic ‘"Loads forever"-issue’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/all-in-one-event-calendar.svg) * [Timely All-in-One Events Calendar](https://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-event-calendar/) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/all-in-one-event-calendar/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/all-in-one-event-calendar/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/all-in-one-event-calendar/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/all-in-one-event-calendar/reviews/) * 9 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [temp5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/temp5/) * Last activity: [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/loads-forever-issue/#post-4939573) * Status: resolved
