 * After struggling with install I found deactivating all plugins and reactivating
   allowed it to work. I can activate, see it on back end and set up… But now I 
   can’t get it to work on the front end. I can see it’s a theme issue, since switching
   to default 2015 reveals the calendar. Anything else just shows the word ‘demo’(
   which is the one event I put in to test with).
    Has anyone had any luck getting
   it to work on a theme based on this: HTML5 Blank WordPress Theme [http://html5blank.com/](http://html5blank.com/)
   It’s a custom theme but I see evidence this is what it is based on.

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for using our plugin. I can try to help out here, but we are limited in
   supporting theme compatibility issues.
 * Having said that, does the theme have any coding to modify the output of the 
   archives?
 * Our plugin creates the views in the archives and that could be the source of 
   this conflict.
 * Thanks

 * All the archive file has on it is: ` <h1><?php _e( ‘Archives’, ‘html5blank’ );?
   ></h1>
 *  <?php get_template_part(‘loop’); ?>
 *  <?php get_template_part(‘pagination’); ?>`
 * I tried adding in the code from a default theme (replacing the name of course)
   out of desperation but it did not work. :/
 * For whatever its worth advancedcustomfields plugin appears to be somehow hacked
   into the functions files. not sure if its relevant or not but I’m suspicious 
   of it.
