[Plugin: The Events Calendar] Get Page Not Found for Previous, Next and Listing

me too, ??

I’m experiencing the same issue. I’ve found a few threads where people have suggested editing the datepicker.php file to solve the problem of the month dropdown not working but this doesn’t have any effect on the next/previous month links or the List View button.

I think I’m just going to wipe it out and start over. Deleting the plugin will not delete the posts that you have created and categorized as events.

Ok I just deleted the plugin and started over and everything is working now. I suspect that the problem was related to changes I had made to all of my post pages, including making custom templates. Can’t point to one thing in particular but the plugin was working correctly when I installed and styled it. Somewhere along the way I broke it but now it’s working again. I’m running 3.0 and plugin version 1.6.5.

On this new install of the plugin I also decided to create my custom view templates into their own folder within my theme (wp-content -> themes -> events) as the developer recommends so that they won’t get overwritten everytime I upgrade the plugin or reinstall.

Try setting “Use Pretty URLs” to off

(Settings > The Events Calendar)

I had all these same problems, the month dropdown, the List and Calendar link, the 404 error.

I do use a custom permalink structure.
When I switched back to the default WP permalinks, things improved.
But, I want the custom permalinks, so I turned it back on and did codebloo’s suggestion.

In The Event Calendar’s settings, turning Use Pretty URLs off helped.

All links work accept for the month dropdown.

Looking at the URL produced in the address bar after clicking on a dropdown month, and comparing it to the URL for that same month when you click on a next/previous month link, they are different. I don’t think they should be different. I’m going to try editing that dropdown to match those URLs up. I’ll post results.

Got it! First try, easy.

The file to edit:
WP install folder> wp-content > plugins > the-events-calendar > views > datepicker.php

Open with web editing software and change line 8 from:
$link .= ‘&eventDisplay=month&eventDate=’;
to
$link .= ‘?eventDisplay=month&eventDate=’;

Notice the & in front of eventDisplay. Change it to a ?.

Save the file and you’re good to go!

Super fix!!

codebloo is right, turn off the pretty permalinks….
…then use JJMatley’s fix in datepicker.php.

Don’t know why it works, all I care is my Calendar works now!!

Great job!

I agree, it worked! The lag time of me making these changes and them actually showing up on the site was about 10 minutes — hopefully this works for everybody and they don’t pull too many hairs out ??
