Reinstalling EM v5.7.3 did solve this issue, as well as the issue with Divi from the other thread. However updating to 5.7.3.3 again caused the problem to reappear.

I am convinced this has to do with changes in these last versions. After I replaced /classes/em-locations.php with the older 5.7.3 version the widget worked properly again.

Indeed it does work as intended and as i wish on a clean installed WP with twenty seventeen theme. I will try reinstalling EM on the first website.

Unfortunately this still does not solve the problem, using twenty sixteen and no other plugins enabled, the widget as well as the shortcode display only 4 out of 7 locations: the locations that do have any events related to it.

I will try a clean install to test.

Thanks Angelo, however this will not help to resolve since the fix you propose is for the admin area of EM. In the admin I can see all locations listed. The problem occurs on the homepage.

Hello Angelo, thanks for your reply. The EM version is the most current one: 5.7.3.3.

I believe this has to do with $event_optional_join and the query that gets build at line 149 from classes/em-locations.php, thus locations are only selected if there is an event related to it. This could be a logical decision on how the plugin should work, but then there should also be added an option to show all locations (regardless of them having any events or not) IMHO.

Thanks for the fast reply. Unfortunately this does not work, the locations are also missing on the locations page and when using the shortcode. So only the locations that have events are being shown in the widget, shortcode and on the locations page.

Also, changing the formatting in the settings not only affects the format of the shortciode, but also of the location page. This is undesired since the widget in the footer shows only a short list of location names where the locations page gives more information.

Hello Caimin,

Thankyou for your swift reply. I am only using the EM widgets (locations, events and agenda) and a customized Divi Blog module (to display locations in style of theme).

I have removed (deactivated) the widgets and the customized Blog module to test if the issue persists, which it did.

Unfortunately I am experiencing the same issue on a WordPress single site install.
