Should event_embed event still work?

    Ever since upgrading to the latest version of The Events Calendar Pro and Event Rocket I’ve noticed that my shortcodes for embedding events no longer seems to work consistently. Is [event_embed event=”1000″] still supported?

    I know there have been some changes and using that shortcode now either results in a bunch of upcoming events being listed, no event showing, or sometimes on pages with multiple shortcodes I see the same event listed 4 times.

    I’ve tried to troubleshoot using IDs vs. slugs but can’t figure out a pattern.

    I’d post the URL but the site is still in development and password protected for now, and I’m not comfortable posting it in the public yet.

    Are there any changes to the event_embed event=”” shortcode that we should be aware of?

    Thank you!

    Hi @synapse,

    I’m afraid there is a bug – I believe it’s already fixed in the latest develop-branch code and I’ll push an update out for that and a couple of other things shortly.

    Apologies for the inconvenience in the meantime!

    Thanks Barry for your help.

    I updated to Event Rocket v3.1 but I’m still seeing some odd behaviors. For example, on one page only the first embed code I enter seems to show anything, and on another page no event details are showing up at all for any event (I have several, each in an accordion).

    Is there a limit to how many can display on one page? I’m using the Enfold WordPress theme but I haven’t had any issues until recently. Are there any known Enfold theme issues or places I can start to look to troubleshoot? I’ve tried to figure out a pattern to the problems I’m seeing but can’t find one yet.

    Hey Dan,

    It may be I missed something.

    Can you give me some examples to work with (I realize event IDs etc are unique to your site, but just to give me a sense of things are laid out).

    It could also be worth testing without Enfold – simply because they do ship with a ton of event-targetted customizations.

    Hi Barry,

    On one test page I only have two lines. Only the first item ever seems to show (even if I switch which one is first):

    [event_embed event="1881"]
[event_embed event="1882"]

    I have another real page that is more complex that has an Enfold accordion component with probably ~20 items. Event Rocket codes are in some toggles, while others have just text. None of this information seems to show up.

    Some of the event toggles are:
    [event_embed event="joseph-sight-sound-theatre-lancaster-pa"]
    [event_embed event="1880"]
    [event_embed event="1844"]

    The toggles with event shortcodes only have those codes in them.

    When I disable Enfold, the complex homepage won’t load properly (since it is all built with their custom editor components), but the simple page with just those two lines still will only display one event. I sometimes even have trouble getting it to display one (it seems a little sporadic depending on which event I choose and whether I use the ID or slug name).

    If there is a private way to contact you I’d be happy to give you the password to check out our site so you can see it in person.

    Thanks for your continued support troubleshooting this,
    – Dan

    Thanks! You’re right, this is a legitimate bug and I’ll get a fix out shortly.

    It’s not quite ready to go out – I need to make further adjustments in relation to recurring events and some other things – but you can access a dev copy of what will become 3.2 here.

    Thanks, Barry! That seemed to fix the issues I was seeing. There are still a few formatting UI issues for recurring events, but I think that is more of a conflict with my Enfold theme.

    Thanks again for your help! I’ll be sure to update to the official version when it is released.
