Calendar stopped displaying

    I noticed a while back that my calendars are not showing any more. I have no clue what happened.

    I tried the following steps:
    – Changed from authentication with API key to proper OAuth authentication
    – Changed the calendars from public to private
    – Disabled all other plugins
    – Clicked the ‘Update calendars’ button and the ‘Verify’ button (“Verify OK!” it says)
    – Changed from calendars block to inline script and back

    What can I do make it work or at least find out why it doesn’t?

    Thank you very much!

    Hi,

    I see an error about some format error in the Javascript console. And I see you use the following properties to customise the calendar:
    – eventTimeFormat
    – data-locale (which is set to “de_DE_formal” – I don’t think this is a valid locale but I could be wrong)
    I think it has to do with these settings. You can try to remove all custom configuration first and see if that solves your issue.

    It looks like you are also still using the FullCalendar 4 setting. I would advise to change this to FullCalendar 5, as the version 4 will be removed in a future release.

    Hopefully this helps

    Thanks for your swift reply. One of your observations actually helped solve the problem!

    The problem was caused by the language setting of my wordpress installation.
    Obviously the calendar doesn’t work with “Deutsch (Sie)”, which translates as “German (formal)”. I switched back to the standard “German” (informal) and now it works again.
    Seems like “Deutsch (Sie)” is not a supported language. Is this a problem of the plugin? Can I do anything to make it work – translate maybe?

    You can solve this issue by explicitly setting the “locale” property.

    See for more details:

    If you use the Gutenberg block, you add this to the “FullCalendar config” (that I think you already activated). So in your case you should add:

    locale="de-de"

    to your shortcode or Gutenberg FullCalendar config.

    That’s a great solution, thank you!

    (Yesterday, I experimented with a multi-language plugin to have different pages in different languages. It was a mess.)

    This works. I added
    "locale":"de-de"
    to the Gutenberg block.
    Now it keeps showing even if the page is set to be “Deutsch (Sie)” / “German (formal)”

    Thanks for taking the time and for providing this plugin totally free of charge. If there is a possibility to make a small donation, please let me know.
