    I just upgraded from version 4.302 to version 5.051. All went well on my development server, but on the live server, all existing events were duplicated on upgrade. So there are now two event listings per event. The events page (where I am showing a calendar) and the events widget are both now pointing at the newly-created pages, which have identical URLs to the old pages except that they all end in “-2”.

    Any idea what happened? Is there an easy fix? There were a few dozen events already listed on the site, so it’s not a horrendous issue, but I wanted to ticket it.

    Thanks

    that’s strange, can you check in table wp_posts or wp_em_events whether it’s really duplicating?

    By any chance did you refresh the page whilst updating? There should be a throttle to prevent this, but could be that?

    Hi Marcus. No, I did not refresh the page at all while upgrading. I sat and let it spin. Didn’t take long to complete the process. I did get a “click here to complete the upgrade” link, which I clicked when it appeared and had sat there for a few seconds.

    I’ve had one incident where a user did this due to refreshing, hence the throttle being added, but aside from that this is the first time…. if deleting the events resolves it all, I’d do that for now

    The hosting server was running pretty slowly the day I upgraded events manager, so perhaps something timed out…

    When you say “deleting the events”, are you referring to the original events or the new duplicates (ones ending in -2)?

    yes, you can try to delete those that are ending with (-2).
