WP Post ID equal to Zero (Events Tab) results in broken links

  • Sometimes after connecting with meetup and retriving the new events the plugin stores the new data but doesn’t seem to create correctly the links needed to access the new custome type posts (the ones that the plugn creates to store events).

    As a result events are shown in plugin’s “Events” tab as WP Post ID = 0 and even though the posts seems to be created correctly (accesible if you write the url) they can not be accessed from the “event list” created using the shortcode (the list show the events, but “title” and “read more” links are broken and take the user to home).

    At the beginning I felt that maybe the plugin had been having problems as a result of trying to sync too much data at the same time but the new info after each sync doesn’t seem that much. I am trying to sync 15 groups (3 events per group).

    The WP Post ID = 0 problem has happened to me several times (different websites), and even though I have been able to get the plugin to work again regenerating the API key and reloading the groups (deleting them and adding them again), I would wish to know if there is a solution for this problem as the “reset” process I feel it’s counterproductive from a SEO/Google perspective (broken links?).

    So the Post ID = 0 is the default falsey return when trying to fetch a post if the post is not found. So I would assume that as the events are being pulled into WordPress, and posts are being created perhaps the permalink is being fetched before the event post has been fully created and stored. You said this doesn’t happen consistently, right? Is this a new development or is this something that you have been noticing for some time? I will have to take a look into the bug and see if I can’t find the source.

    Thanks,
