 * I’ve recently purchased “Crown Art Theme” that comes with Essential Grid and 
   The Events Calendar. I’m trying to EC to work with ESS. While ESS Preview shows
   what I need just fine, when I try to show the grid inside a page, it won’t load.
   If I chose any other form of article, even custom ones, they show up just ok.
   Just EC ones won’t load.
    When I turn debug on, I get the following Database 
   Error:
 * [Unknown column ‘EventStartDate’ in ‘order clause’]
    SELECT DISTINCT wp_posts.*
   FROM wp_posts LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta as tribe_event_end_date ON ( wp_posts.ID 
   = tribe_event_end_date.post_id AND tribe_event_end_date.meta_key = ‘_EventEndDateUTC’)
   WHERE 1=1 AND wp_posts.post_type = ‘tribe_events’ AND ((wp_posts.post_status 
   = ‘publish’)) ORDER BY EventStartDate ASC, wp_posts.post_author ASC
 * Wordpress:5.4.2
    The Events Calendar:5.1.4 Essential Grid:2.3.5
 * Thanks!

 * Ok, so that sorted itself out. The most unlikely plugin is breaking The Events
   Calendar’s work with ESS…
 * “WP GDPR Compliance”
 * I’m leaving this here in case anyone else has a problem.
