[Plugin: Events Manager] Warning: implode… error in 4.0.2, 4.0.3, 4.0.4

yup, a few reports on this and working on a solution i hope for today.

just tried a few times on my local and all good. what type of recurrence are you trying to add?

Hi Marcus.

I’m also having that problem. In my case I have tried to create an event which is recurrencing every 2 weeks on tuesdays. This results in the error message that ‘swpress’ have posted.

I am pretty sure that all your issues are due to not setting an end date far enough in the future (in recurrences, end day is last day of recurrence, multi-recurrent dates adding soon)? any confirmations on this would be appreciated!

the warning is just that… a warning, it doesn’t prevent events from being created

Hi Marcus.

Thanks for your explanation. I’ve tested that. I set start date of the event to 24.05.2011 and end date to 27.12.2011 and recurring every 2 weeks on tuesdays. Result: giving the same ‘warning’ message and the event is not created.

Strange.

can anyone confirm this? this works for me. I get a different warning now for those dates that I’ll fix, but according to the warning above my fix should solve this.

@marcus: I’ve made a screenshot:

Plugin-Version: 4.0.4
Wordpress Version: 3.1.2
PHP Version: 5.2.6 (open_basedir and safemode on)

Thanks for your work.

i had a feeling your issue was different ?? i’m betting your problem is to do with the time. you should have some js that forces AM/PM times. Do the datepickers work?

if you try adding 12:00 AM as start and end time, does it work? If so you’ve got a plugin or theme conflict.

That screenshot is identical to what I’m experiencing. Changing the start/end times to 12:00AM doesn’t help, nor does adjusting the length of the recurrence. I continue to get the error every time for recurring events. Thanks for looking into this.

@marcus: The datepicker works as expected and insert “24.05.2011” and “27.12.2011”. But after clicking “save event” the dates changes to US format: 05/24/2011 and 12/27/2011.

But if i wrote the the dates by hand (german format) and clicking save event, the plugin telling me:

Missing fields: event_start_date.

Da sich die Veranstaltung wiederholt, müssen sie ein Veranstaltungsdatum angeben.

Dates must have correct formatting. Please use the date picker provided.

The date fiels are after that blank. Changing the start/end times to 12 doesn’t help, as swpress says.

EDIT: Now i see there’s a 4.0.5 out. I check this with the new version.

EDIT 2: I have installed the new version. The PHP error message is now gone, but i still can’t add a new event. The plugin tells me:

You have not defined an end date long enough to create a recurrence.

Etwas lief schief bei der Aktualisierung der Wiederholungen…Es gab ein Problem beim Speichern der wiederkehrenden Veranstaltungen.

The dates after clicking ‘add event’ are displayed in US format.

I’ve applied the update, so the plugin now states:

“You have not defined an end date long enough to create a recurrence.
Something went wrong with the recurrence update…There was a problem saving the recurring events.”

However, my dates are perfectly good (selected from the calendar, 06/12/2011 to 06/10/2012, which it’s chosen to use the US calendar for?)

Any update?

I was having the same issue with 4.03 and 4.04 re ‘warning implode’ and now after upgrading to 4.05 I too get
“You have not defined an end date long enough to create a recurrence.
Something went wrong with the recurrence update…There was a problem saving the recurring events.”

This is regardless of whether he date spans weeks, months or years. I’m keen to buy the pro version of this plugin as I really do think it’s fantastic, but not until this recurring events issues resolved. Any updates would be great Marcus and congrats on such a great plugin.

fair enough ?? it can’t be a big issue, it was working before (and works for me).

Can someone try giving me more info on the recurrence. is it daily/weekly/monthly, what day of week etc.

can someone also try disabling plugins, and if no good reverting to 2010 theme?

I think it must be a theme conflict of some kind, but I can’t think what. The theme that I’m having problems with is called Modularity. The recurring events issues is daily, weekly & monthly. BUT I have installed your plugin in another site (I’m going to upgrade to pro version for this other site) and recurring events works great.

Apart from the two sites being different themes, the only other variables I can think of is the site that has the issue was upgrading in succession (the site that works was a straight install of 4.05) and the site that has issues uses a quick cache plugin (disabled this and made no difference tho’).

Hope that helps!

can someone confirm ksaffy’s comment? I’m pretty sure it’s a theme issue then because the screenshot fux sent shows the Address/City,etc. labels very large, which indicates some sort of interference from a plugin or theme with JS or CSS files (or outputting some text before the head tags in html, something like that).

thinking about it, if someone can figure out if you’re getting JS errors on that page and paste the error messages here, maybe there’s something I can make of it and improve compatability (no guarantee tho since I don’t know the cause)
