 * Yes, EA would show nothing but a blank calendar with TEC deactivated. However
   it is difficult to completely test this as I am working on a live site. I have
   received tentative approval to switch to TEC for both the website calendar and
   to bring events into our app via the API. In fact when I installed TEC I found
   that organization had previously used it around 2019 as there was still leftover
   data in the database. The organization is considering moving away from Elementor,
   so my hope is to use TEC on its own (without Elementor or EA) and apply a template
   so we’re not locked into either of those plugins.
 * Unless you know of any other optimization techniques related to using TEC I think
   we can consider this ticket closed, as raising the memory limit solved the Elementor
   loading issue. Thank you for taking the time to work with me on this issue. If
   you have any other questions for me regarding our implementation I am happy to
   share what I know.

 * Yes, of course. We already have a calendar page which contains an Event Calendar
   widget provided by Essential Addons. The goal here is to use TEC to manage the‘
   events’ and have EA display them on the calendar widget. The whole problem started
   because I could not load that page to set TEC as the source for the calendar 
   events. The EA widget just puts events in the page content so they’re not accessible
   through the REST API.
 * We may switch over to TEC completely once everything is resolved and tested, 
   but I could only advocate for this change.

 * Here are the steps I took this morning:
 * Initial config (before enabling TEC): PASS
 * **Performed these isolated tests with The Events Calendar plugin enabled:**
 * Disable all minification and clear cache: FAIL
 * define( ‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘324M’ );
   anddefine( ‘WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘324M’);:
   PASS (previous limit was default 256 and was not set in wp-config.php)
 * Disable ‘Essential Addons for Elementor’ plugin: PASS
 * **Enable Debugging (per TEC guide) with initial config and The Events Calendar
   plugin enabled:**
 * FATAL ERROR:
   [10-Aug-2025 18:21:14 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size 
   of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 16531408 bytes) in /home/username/
   example.com/wp-content/plugins/elementor/core/common/modules/ajax/module.php 
   on line 270
 * There were other Warnings and Deprecations, mostly about loading translations
   too early, but these also stood out:
   [10-Aug-2025 18:21:25 UTC] PHP Warning: 
   preg_match(): Compilation failed: quantifier does not follow a repeatable item

   10-Aug-2025 18:21:25 UTC] PHP Warning: preg_match(): Compilation failed: quantifier
   does not follow a repeatable item at offset 2 in /home/username/example.com/wp-
   includes/class-wp.php on line 239
 * Probably unrelated, but it should be noted that without TEC enabled the Elementor
   editor (for the calendar page) takes up to one minute to load, with admin-ajax.
   php taking 48 sec on one of the several calls. With TEC enabled and memory limit
   increased the editor loads in about 40 seconds, with admin-ajax taking around
   16sec on the longest call.
 * So raising the memory limit seems to work. We are on DreamHost shared.

 * The tutorial should list which version of WP and packages are being used. It 
   says to use latest, but package.json is never shown so there’s no way to conform
   to the tutorial.

 * Looks like your update has fixed the problem! I am able to view the site both
   logged in and out, and the forum appearance and settings seems to be correct.
 * Its running on the site now if you need to check it out.
 * Side note: I am on a shared hosting plan and can’t really say how well the site
   is performing, although my host is usually pretty generous with resources. Also
   I have a few other things with users/profiles going on in the background, like
   redirection, author base url rewrite, etc, which could be having an impact.

 * I’m using BuddyPress, but I don’t believe i’m using any of the shortcodes for
   BP or BSP
 * I think I recently updated TablePress, Stackable, Forum Permissions bbPress, 
   and my theme Blocksy and its companion plugin.
 * I have 1 or 2 old warnings from other plugins, but nothing else related to BP/
   BBP/BSP and no other fatals.
 * Reverting to 5.6.2 fixes the problem.
 * EDIT: Found this warning sometime before the fatal errors:

 * Hey Aurovrata I don’t have this metabox. In fact I was just watching one of your
   videos and I don’t have any of the metaboxes you have, only ‘Status’, and nothing
   else is available under screen options. Do I need the Smart Grid plugin installed
   or have activated the metaboxes some other way?

 * That worked to get rid of the error and now it proceeds to the cart page! However
   if I try to remove items from the cart or navigate around it breaks the cart.
   Then I have to go into the db and delete the session and wipe the browser cache
   which resets the cart, but it always breaks again. Basically it seems to work
   on a new user’s first visit but will break if they try to modify the cart or 
   leave the site.

   Do I need to replicate the folder structure as well?
