Thanks.
I’ve just set up a Pro test/demo “try.eventsmanagerpro.com” page, with its multiple bookings/shopping cart page, and it looks like exactly what I need. I will be upgrading my Events Manager to Pro very shortly!
I’m getting this error too, for a Sunday recurring event. It’s a really big problem, and my clients are NOT happy.
Events Manager 5.5.4

In reply to: [Postie] Basic setup instructions?OK – from searching around various random Youtube tutorials, etc, I’ve got it figured out.

In reply to: [Postie] Basic setup instructions?Huh? I’ve just received a couple of “Unauthorized Post Attempt from…” emails to my Gmail account. Am I supposed to set up a specific email account, just for Postie posts? (For example, I’d create a brand new Gmail account with an obscure address – righ8gt7ioru9@gmail.com or something – and anything that gets sent there automatically appears as a post on my site?) Is that how it works?
If so, wouldn’t any spam or other random emails sent to righ8gt7ioru9@gmail.com then get posted to my site?
Some kind of basic setup instructions would be greatly appreciated, please!

In reply to: [Openstrap] Adding div classesThey should go in wp-content/themes/style.css. Be aware that if you add them to the main theme’s style.css, this file will get overwritten if you update the theme (although the developer of this theme seems to have disappeared off the radar, so I don’t anticipate any updates ever).
To avoid this, you can either create a child theme, or just keep a copy of your styles.css file and make sure you copy any new stuff in to the style.css file after you’ve updated the theme.
Here’s my first ever WordPress site; I created it using Openstrap, and as you can see, it’s substantially modified, including div classes and all sorts of stuff: http://weareccfm.com/

In reply to: [Openstrap] What's new in 1.0.9?Does anyone else find it slightly worrying that Pavan, the theme author, has not posted anything here for over 4 months?
Is this theme going to be abandoned, left to gather dust, or can we anticipate future updates, especially regarding inevitable security holes which may arise?

I found this:
http://blog.techwheels.net/send-email-from-localhost-wamp-server-using-sendmail/
…and followed the instructions here to set up some kind of mailserver or something. To my utter shock and surprise, it actually worked! Well, all emails (regardless of who sent them) are ‘from’ me, ‘to’ me. But heyho, it’s Windoze, you can’t expect it to work 100% properly.– Paul

In reply to: [Events Manager - Calendar, Bookings, Tickets, and more!] Ticket typesI came here to ask the exact same question! I’d like the ability to create four ticket types, then save those ticket types as some kind of group, in the exact same way I can do with locations. Then, when I create a new event (which has the exact same four ticket types as all my other events) I can just select the pre-formatted ticket types from a drop-down menu.
My scenario is this:
The website is for farmers’ markets.
I have many different markets, in different locations, on different dates.
Each market has the same four ticket types:- Standard market holder stall
Standard market holder stall with electrical supply
Small market holder stall
Small market holder stall with electrical supplyI’d like to be able to apply this exact group of ticket types to every market.
Aha! I kind of fixed it. I changed that “Single location page format” to this, and it seems to work:
<p>The next market here is on <strong>#_LOCATIONNEXTEVENT</strong>.</p> #_LOCATIONNOTES <h3>Upcoming Markets in #_LOCATIONTOWN</h3> [events_list town="#_LOCATIONTOWN" limit=10 pagination=1]<li>#_EVENTDATES,#_BOOKINGBUTTON</li>[/events_list]Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Openstrap] Menu problems on iPad MiniI’ve just checked with a friend who is unfortunate enough to have installed iOS7 on their iPad and iPhone, and the menus work perfectly, which is fantastic news.
That does mean that 13% of iPad/iPhone users will get a garbled menu (apparently the uptake of iOS7 is around 87% currently). But at least it’ll be ok for the majority of users.

In reply to: [Openstrap] Menu problems on iPad MiniI tried that – it made no difference. The text is all rendered above the background. I’ve now got that opacity set to 1 if you want to take a look.

In reply to: [Openstrap] Menu problems on iPad MiniHi Pavan,
That version of the site has been replaced by a more recent one:
…but the problem is still there. Also, the same problem exists on your site’s demo:
http://demo.opencodez.com/openstrap/
…(both when viewed in portrait mode).
From what I’ve read about most online iPad/iPhone simulators, they don’t actually emulate the iOS, but just put the site in a specific sized window and run it through the default browser’s renderer, so it’s not a true indication of how it will work on an iOS device.
I’ve already got the menu set to appear on click, not hover; maybe I’ll try setting it to the hover behaviour to see if it has any effect.
I’m running iOS 6.0.1 on my iPad mini. Maybe I’ll have to downgrade to iOS7 to see if the problem persists.
Thanks for your help so far,
Paul

In reply to: [Openstrap] Menu problems on iPad MiniOK – so this is a fault inherent in this theme. If you go to the developer’s website demo of this theme (demo.opencodez.com/openstrap/) and look at the menus in portrait mode on an iPad mini, they’re totally screwed up, and it’s not possible to select anything properly. So I’m guessing that the chances of this being fixed easily are close to zero. How annoying that I chose to develop my site on a defective theme. Pavan, if you’re reading this – what are the chances that this will get fixed in an update? Please?!
