In reply to: [Calendar] PHP 7 Compatibility?Thanks for alerting me to this; I’ll look into it – I’m currently on an older version myself so haven’t seen these errors – will fix it in the next release

In reply to: [Calendar] Poor PerformanceMany thanks for the detailed analysis here. Many of the issues you’ve highlighted I’ve been aware of for some time; the plugin is old and although supported in the latest versions of WordPress and has received some updates (namely on request and for security related concerns), it can certainly be said that a solid refactor with a focus on performance is required.
I’d like to say that I’ll get started on this straight away, but having recently moved house with all of the upheaval that entails, I’m finding very little time to spend on projects outside my day job. Having said that, I can certainly see myself getting round to improving this plugin before the end of the year.
In terms of what I planned on doing, broadly what you have suggested is about the size of it;
- Retrieving all the events once (filtering those non-recurring items that have passed)
- Running PHP logic with date parameters over these for finding events on days
- Removing restrictions surrounding look ups into the future
- More closely aligning the data captured with the iCalendar format to permit extensions in this area; you’ll likely have noticed that an iCal feed is now provided in the most recent version although it’s very basic

In reply to: [Calendar] Black diamond question mark replacing special charactersSo just to loop back on this, it seems like the translation file isn’t properly encoded. I’ll pull this version from the next release and try substituting a replacement

In reply to: [Calendar] CSS correctionSo to give some more detail on this, the bug is related to the trac ticket linked to below. I’ve reverted the query var usage in calendar as a result to get around the problem. This will be in the next fix which I hope to get out before Christmas
