In reply to: [Restrictions for BuddyPress] Critical error with BuddyBoss theme & platformHi there,
Thanks for bringing his issue to our attention.
In this case, the Fatal error is occurring due to a compatibility conflict between the Redux framework bundled in the Restrictions for BuddyPress plugin(version 4.0.0) and the BuddyBoss theme’s Redux extensions. The theme’s extensions are using an older version of Redux (3.0.0) that did not include typed property declarations, leading to a type mismatch.
Prior to BuddyBoss theme updating their Redux version, you may make changes in the BP Restrict plugin to remove the strict type declarations from the Redux abstract class properties ($extension_url and $extension_dir). This change ensures backward compatibility with themes using older Redux extensions, preventing the fatal error. To do so, please carry out the following:
– Navigate to the class-redux-extension-abstract.php file within the \wp-content\plugins\bp-restrict\includes\options\inc\classes\ directory path
– Search for the line of code below:protected string $extension_url;– Alter it to:
protected $extension_url;– Search for:
protected string $extension_dir;– Alter it to:
protected $extension_dir;I hope this information helps. Should you have any questions, please feel free to reach out once again.

In reply to: [Simple Calendar - Google Calendar Plugin] Cache doesn’t clear automaticallyHi there,
Just a quick question around this.
We are considering providing a URL to clear cache. Do you mind letting us know how you plan to use it should this be a feature that we provide in the future.
Your input will help us better understand the use case and ensure the solution fits your needs.I look forward to your reply.

In reply to: [Simple Calendar - Google Calendar Plugin] Cache doesn’t clear automaticallyHi there,
Thanks for staying in touch with us.
In this case, I do understand your frustration here. However, the approach we use in our plugin helps prevent rate limits and improves overall site performance. At the moment, I’m not aware of a plugin that fully avoids caching while still remaining reliable and compliant with Google’s API limits.
I’m sorry I couldn’t provide a more ideal solution here, but I hope this helps clarify things.

In reply to: [Simple Calendar - Google Calendar Plugin] Cache doesn’t clear automaticallyHi there,
Thanks for staying in touch with us.
About your question here, unfortunately the plugin does not provide functionality to clear the cache via external requests. Cache clearing is intentionally handled within the WordPress admin for security reasons, and there isn’t a public endpoint available for this.
Implementing such functionality would require custom development, including creating a secure endpoint to handle the request.
I hope this helps.

In reply to: [Simple Calendar - Google Calendar Plugin] Cache doesn’t clear automaticallyHi there,
Thanks for reaching out.
About the query here, what you are seeing is expected behavior in the Simple Calendar plugin. When a new event is added in Google Calendar, the plugin does not pull and display it instantly in real time. Instead, it uses a cached version of the calendar data to improve performance. Due to this caching mechanism, newly added events may take some time to appear on your website, or they will only show after the next scheduled refresh. You can adjust the default refresh interval from the Advanced tab in the calendar settings if you wish to modify this period.
Manually clearing the calendar cache as outlined here forces an immediate update, which is why you are seeing the event after doing so. I would suggest checking out the faq here for details about this.I hope this information helps.

In reply to: [Visibility Logic for Elementor] Date Time condition incorrect timeHi there,
Thanks for staying in touch with us.
About the query here, it is likely then that there could be a mismatch between the WordPress time and PHP time.
The plugin uses WordPress functions (which follow your Berlin timezone) for current time,
but the date/time set is parsed using PHP (strtotime()), which may be using a different timezone (often UTC). This can result in a consistent 1-hour difference.Taking the above into consideration I would suggest carrying out the following:
1. Confirm your PHP timezone by running:echo date_default_timezone_get();If it’s not Europe/Berlin, update your php.ini to:
date.timezone = Europe/Berlin2. Restart the PHP/server and clear caches before testing again, and check whether the issue is resolved.
I hope this resolves the issue.

In reply to: [Visibility Logic for Elementor] Date Time condition incorrect timeHi there,
Thanks for staying in touch with us.
In this case, if the above didn’t help, then the issue here is likely something to do with your server. The server’s PHP configuration (date.timezone) may differ slightly from the WordPress setting. I would recommend that you confirm with your hosting provider that both are aligned.
Let us know how it goes.

In reply to: [Visibility Logic for Elementor] Date Time condition incorrect timeHi there,
Thanks for reaching out to us.
About the query here, I have tested the Date/Time visibility condition on my end and I’m unable to replicate the issue. The setting is working as expected, which suggests this may be specific to your environment rather than a bug in the plugin itself.
Taking the above into consideration, could you please try the following:
- Double-check that your WordPress Timezone is set to a city within the (Settings > General) section on your WordPress dashboard, rather than a UTC offset.
- Temporarily disable any caching (including CDN, if applicable) and test again
- Clear all caches (site, browser, server)
- Temporarily deactivate other plugins (except Elementor and the visibility plugin) to rule out conflicts with other plugins that you may have in place
Let us know if this helps.
Kind Regards

In reply to: [Simple Calendar - Google Calendar Plugin] Logger crash in Simple CalendarHi there,
I’m sorry to hear that you are encountering an issue with the plugin in your site.
In this case, unfortunately I’m not in a position to replicate this issue from my end, hence it could perhaps be an issue relating to your server environment. Could you perhaps carry out the following upon updating the plugin:
1. Within your plugin files in the website, confirm that the file LoggerInterface.php exists within the directory path /wp-content/plugins/google-calendar-events/third-party/psr/log/src/.2. Still within your site files, confirm that the autoload.php file exists within the directory path /wp-content/plugins/google-calendar-events/third-party/vendor/autoload.php
3. Ensure that you are using PHP 8 and above
If the above checks out and the issue still persists, please try out the following change:
1. Navigate to the google-calendar-events.php file within the wp-content\plugins\google-calendar-events\google-calendar-events.php directory path2. Search for the line of code below:
include_once 'third-party/vendor/autoload.php';Replace it with:
include_once __DIR__ . ‘/third-party/vendor/autoload.php’;
Let us know if this helps.
Kind Regards
