Deactivating Plugin Crashes Site

Hello, I get this error too. always have.

happens only with “The Events Calendar” plugin.

This is now causing me an issue as the plugin is conflicting with our custom homepage layout in Divi theme.

Did you resolve it?

Hello @celeryuk.

Not yet. The folks at The Events Calendar really need to slow down on their updates and do more work on troubleshooting/proofing. I just experienced another problem recently and will have to put a pause on any further plugin updates by them. I’m also looking elsewhere for a different events/ticketing plugin package that won’t be so costly to me and my client for every minor update.

I’m sure the developers are doing their best to address every issue they are being bombarded with, but this is costing me a lot of time and my clients money to fix and wait and all the while they are the ones losing.

Hi there, sorry to hear you are still having trouble.
An update for you and anyone else stumbling across this post.

Our developer (who we hired via Codeable) found the issue and solved it (for us) He said to me…

“I have discovered that The Events Calendar plugin at some point overwrites a parameter and unsets it as the page is not home:

wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/src/Tribe/Query.php
lines 132-134

} else {
$query->is_home = empty( $query->query_vars[‘is_home’] ) ? false : $query->query_vars[‘is_home’];
}

If I overwrite this portion for the home page, in my plugin, this fixes everything.”

Not sure if this helps you but thought I’d share.
I can give you his details if you like, he’s an expert now on the Events Calendar!

thanks

Hello, @celeryuk .

Is this update officially now available? Or is this just a quick fix I will need to make?

this was an unofficial fix by our independent developer.
In the meantime, I havent heard from Events Calendar support in several days. so I’m pleased I opted to get outside support. good luck
