 * This issue has been verified by the good people at the events calendar .com. 
   For some installations, if the tickets block is empty, the RSVP button has no
   action. The workaround is to remove the Tickets block when editing the event.
   They are working on a fix.
   This ticket is resolved

 * Different symptoms so I am not sure it is the same.
 * A solution “suggested” for my issue:
 * If you database is type MyISAM convert it to InnoDB.
 * If your site is using PHP 8.4 downgrade to 8.2 or 8.3 (Event Tickets is not compatible
   with 8.4 yet)
 * I have not tried the proposed solution. And, I have no idea if this is your issue.

 * I know you would rather I open a new support ticket and I DID DO THAT.
 * Two of my websites crashed Friday when Event Tickets was upgraded to 5.27.0. 
   The site was limping along on the previous revision (Running very slow probably
   due to the snippet running often – because the basic cause of our issues has 
   not been fixed).
 * My ISP had to recover (removed the wp_shepard_tec_tasks and other changes.)
 * We may have the same issue with the wp_shepherd_tec_tasks table. It was also 
   using MyISAM. My ISP just changed all my tables to `InnoDB` engine and that “?
   may?” have solved the issue. I will not activate Event Tickets again regardless
   of the revision because I cannot suffer another crash of the websites.
 * HOWEVER, After sending multiple emails with error details, database errors, Etc.
   that were involved in the crashes I have YET to hear back if the issue is solved
   with the table engine change.
 * If that is the cause we just need a reply that will solve the issue.
 * Or, another possibility? Some website developers (like me) may have stopped using
   the Tickets Pro without deleting and then installing the free version of Event
   Tickets. All the old tables for the pro version still exist.
 * Can we get some resolution THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR OTHER WEBSITES

 * [8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/another-fatal-error-same-issue-as-others/#post-18675066)
 * Please do not close the thread. Actually the error returned on our active account
   even after I created the snippet in both accounts. The snippet did not remove
   the records And since the site crashes I have to deactivate the Event Tickets
   on the server to get it working and users are locked out until I get that done.
   A real pain. So as of now we have not RSVPs or tickets sales.
 * And, I am not convinced this will not be an issue later. Why?
 * Looking in the database for both accounts (our current live account and the to-
   be-soon new account) both have several HUNDRED THOUSAND records in the table 
   wp_shepherd_tec_tasks. 199,714 to be more precise. And both sites are running
   very slow even with Event Tickets deactivated..
 * I need to know if it is OK to remove most or all of the records in that table.
   We don’t care about past tickets or events, just need to clean up the data base.
   I can do with a query command, but do not want to do that without your agreement
   it will not crash the site forever.
 * Can I remove ALL records?
 * If not, which records should I keep?
 * Or, is there a better way to get this cleaned up. Remove both plugins, Etc.? 
   Just delete the table?
 * Finally if I get the records removed, do the current revisions of Event Calendar
   and Event Tickets still have the bug or is the bug resolved?
 * Please keep this ticket open until this is resolved completely including cleaning
   the records from the shepherd_tec_tasks table

 * We were in the process of moving the website anyway. After we copied the site
   to the new ISP, the error no longer happens. I have not checked the old site.
 * Should I apply the code snippet anyway or has the bug been fixed?
 * Sorry I did not respond, been a little busy

 * Thank you for taking the time to test this.
 * You are correct. Updating the two Add-ons fixed the issue. Site is on all the
   current versions as per your reply.
 *  I had not realized (or forgot) that some add-ons do not update automatically.

 * **Temporary Solution until the bugs are fixed!**
 * Downgrade the NextGEN Gallery Plug In to rev 3.41. This action suggested by creator
   of WordPress File Upload Pro Version. Thank you for that.
 * Next step is for a fix from NextGEN Gallery. Would be nice if someone at NextGEN
   recognized this post and did something about it.

 * Thank you for the video suggestions and trouble shooting tips.
 * Turns out I cannot repeat this issue with any new Events. The issue only happens
   with one specific Event which will be too hard to diagnose. Could have been the
   cache or cookies or who knows.
 * So, I will mark this as solved and see if the issue repeats with Events in the
   future.

 * Thanks Kim,
 * I created view query using an inner join. Then I used that view to create the
   table to use for the list. Three steps I just did not know where to start. Now
   I have that done.

 * I just installed and found the same issue. Thanks for getting this fixed. Not
   sure how you will go about this but some places a Shift Enter or Control Enter
   will enter a break (br) or a new paragraph <p>
 * Those tags work for now so we will wait without holding our breath
   Thanks for
   doing this plug in. Just what we needed.

 * I am going to assume that Blue Host wants their plug-in to behave that way so
   I will just leave it deactivated. Does not add anything after initial setup.
