Event Manager 5.9.8 date picker no longer works

Hi,

You can also try to install and activate WP Safe Mode to easily narrow down the problem; also, the latest EM version is 5.9.8.1 with Dev version 5.9.8.2

https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/upgrade-dev-version/

I’ve yet to come up with a solution either to this problem. I tried WP Safe Mode, too. I have finally had to resort to adding events through SQL.

Hello,
I had the same problem today : the datepicker and the booking button were not working. I noticed that if “limit JS file loading” is set to yes, many scripts are missing even if the page id is added in “General JS” (I use extra theme).

To solve this problem, I added this function in my child template :

For `
function my_styles_and_scripts() {

// Dequeue Events Manager scripts if not needed
if( !is_page( array (‘events’, ‘locations’, ‘new-event’) ) && !is_singular(array(‘event’, ‘location’) ) && !bp_is_current_component(‘events’) ) {
wp_dequeue_style( ‘events-manager’ );
wp_dequeue_script( ‘events-manager’ );
}

// Enqueue jquery-ui & datepicker for new events
if( is_page( array (‘events’, ‘locations’, ‘new-event’) ) || is_singular(array(‘event’, ‘location’) ) || bp_is_current_component(‘events’) ) {
wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery-core’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery-ui-core’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery-ui-datepicker’);
wp_enqueue_style( ‘events-manager’ );
wp_enqueue_script( ‘events-manager’ );
}
}
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘my_styles_and_scripts’, 100 );
`
I Hope this will work for you too.
Best regards

aurore888,
Thanks for your solution, but can you be more specific on where in the child theme I should put your code.

When I started adding in this code everywhere I put it caused a crash. I finally found a couple places to put the code that didnt cause a crash. They also did not cause any change in the problem.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Don

Hello,

Sorry to read this Don, I’ll do my best to help you.

The code goes in /wp-content/themes/your-child-theme-name/functions.php.

My previous code doesn’t work because the forum editor has replaced the symbol : ‘ by ’. Sorry I can not edit the post so I try to paste it again with more details:

function my_styles_and_scripts() {

    // Remove Events Manager files where they are not needed
    if( !is_page( array ('events', 'locations', 'new-event') ) && !is_singular(array('event', 'location') ) && !bp_is_current_component('events') ) {
    wp_dequeue_style( 'events-manager' );
    wp_dequeue_script( 'events-manager' );
    }
    
    // Add Events Manager files on these pages
    if( is_page( array ('events', 'locations', 'new-event') ) || is_singular(array('event', 'location') ) || bp_is_current_component('events') ) {
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-core');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-core');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-datepicker');
    wp_enqueue_style( 'events-manager' );
    wp_enqueue_script( 'events-manager' );
    }
    
}
// 100 is the priority, please increase this number if this script do not work 
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_styles_and_scripts', 100 );

Please replace the slug of my pages by yours after if( is_page( array (‘the-slug-of-the-page’, ‘the-slug-of-the-page’, ‘the-slug-of-the-page’) )

is_singular(array(‘event’, ‘location’)) check if this is the event or location post type.

bp_is_current_component(‘events’) check if this is the Events BuddyPress component. So you can remove this part if you are not using the BuddyPress plugin or the Buddyboss platform.

People who use the map will have to add more files depending on the plugin they use. It is not included in my exemple.

Please let me know if you need more details.

Kind regards

@donmcmahan The link to “the page you need help with” is not accessible without password. So it’s hard to help more.

    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-core');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-core');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-datepicker');

This part of the code calls the Jquery and Jquery UI files included natively in WordPress. Here is the result I have with WordPress 5.6 :
https://my-site.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.min.js?ver=3.5.1
https://my-site.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/ui/core.min.js?ver=1.12.1
https://my-site.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/ui/datepicker.min.js?ver=1.12.1

The Datepicker works fine with these versions.

My general setting are :
limit Js files = yes + I’ve added the page id of the new event page in the field “new event form”.
limit css files = yes

All other fields are left empty and it works this way even on buddypress pages.

I forgot many jquery ui scripts for the event & booking forms, so the final code is :

function my_styles_and_scripts() {

    // Remove Events Manager files where they are not needed
    if( !is_page( array ('events', 'locations', 'new-event') ) && !is_singular(array('event', 'location') ) && !bp_is_current_component('events') ) {
    wp_dequeue_style( 'events-manager' );
    wp_dequeue_script( 'events-manager' );
    }
    
    // Add Events Manager files on these pages
    if( is_page( array ('events', 'locations', 'new-event') ) || is_singular(array('event', 'location') ) || bp_is_current_component('events') ) {
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-core');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-core');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-autocomplete');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-button');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-controlgroup');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-datepicker');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-checkboxradio');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-dialog');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-draggable');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-menu');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-mouse');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-resizable');
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-sortable');
    wp_enqueue_style( 'events-manager' );
    wp_enqueue_script( 'events-manager' );
    }
    
}
// 100 is the priority, please increase this number if this script do not work 
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_styles_and_scripts', 100 );

But I’m still working on it…
