[Plugin: Events Manager] Upgrade 4 to 5 – Breadcrumbs Now Incorrect

  • Hello, I just upgraded from 4.305 to Events Manager 5.0.51 on a site – all seems to have gone well, except the breadcrumbs have changed for some reason when accessing individual events? Nothing else has changed.

    Here is a page in question: https://www.belttechnologies.com/upcoming-shows/pacific-design-mfg/

    I’m using Yoast Breadcrumbs on the site, all other page breadcrumbs are still displaying correctly. As well as the main events listing page, which is under Contact Us / Upcoming Shows. However, when choosing a single event, the breadcrumb then changes to Latest News / Single Event. (Latest News being the sites blog posts.)

    The breadcrumb path should have remained Contact Us / Upcoming Shows / Single Event to allow users to back out.

    I’ve checked the permalinks in the WordPress settings and resaved them as mentioned in the 4 to 5 upgrade instructions for Events Manager. I’ve tried checking the new permalinks options available in Events Manager to see if I could effect it, but no luck.

    It’s effecting all pages that have the new Events Manager Pages / Permalink Slugs. Any thoughts on what would be causing this?

    Thank you for any insight.
    Jonathon

    @kdt92 – Thanks for the info.

    @marcus – Gave it a try switching away from the basic Yaost Breadcrumbs to using the built in with Yoast SEO. It’s partially working now. My base events page is set to Upcoming Shows, which displays in the breadcrumbs correctly as Welcome / Contact Us / Upcoming Shows, but then when selecting an event, Contact Us / Upcoming Shows drops from the breadcrumbs and becomes Welcome / Event Name. Can’t find a setting that would control that. Any thoughts?

    Not sure, I noticed this too. What’s odd is that locations do it correctly for me i.e. Home > Locations > Name

    Will investigate.

    turns out this is sort of a mix-up between wp, yseo and EM…. I’ve made a few fixes for next update.

    One thing you have to do anyway to get that link to stop being dropped is also enable archives, currently you have to choose no events page (don’t save), enable archives, reset to your old events page, then save.

    Hi Marcus,
    Thank you for the update and for checking that out, I know it would have taken time to track down.

    I’m not sure I follow the steps you mentioned to stop the links from being dropped? Would you mind explaining the steps a bit? Otherwise, it sounds like the next release might take care of it?

    Thanks again for your time,
    Jonathon

    First, go to Events > Settings > Pages > Events List/Archives

    and then follow my instructions, hope that clarifies ??

    This wouldn’t change in the update if you don’t set this up.

    Hi Marcus,
    Thanks for that. I set to No Events (didn’t save), and when I do, I see the archive option you mention, but it’s already set to Yes. So, I then reselected my events page and saved. Don’t see any differences on the front end though?

    Maybe you need the update then (try the dev version, it’s pretty much ready to go, planning release for today)
