Sorry to say I’ve discovered that page cacheing causes the displayed time to be incorrect. Now that I have moved my gorgeous looking clocks to the live site the displayed times are all over the place! Unless I turn off cacheing.

Is there a better way to get the time other than putting it into the page source? Ajax was recommended to me by WP Fastest Cache support.

Please help, I want to put the clocks on my home page but Google will hate me if I don’t have it cached!

I spoke too soon, after emailing WP Fastest Cache support – it seems that the hour and minute is put into the page source code and so any cacheing will cause a problem. They suggest using an Ajax call to get the time – could that be a possible solution?

Ah! Clearing the cache of minified JavaScript solves the problem. I can easily add a rule to stop WP Fastest Cache cacheing that particular JS.

Great update – works perfectly for me now. Beowolf, I use it with Elegant Themes Divi which can use the Sidebar module to add a widget anywhere in the page. This works great.

Thanks for a simple and effective plugin, however if the computer goes to sleep the time is wrong on wake up, until the page is refreshed – is there an easy way to automatically update the time or check every 5 minutes say?

Thanks

A similar thread has the solution:
Thanks teszilla as you say SOLUTION: not sure what changed but you need to go into the plugin >Settings >Viewing Events >Calendar Page >Auto-Create New Page. This stops the calendar from adding itself to the page you have the shortcode on and creates it’s own page which you will likely not use.

imellor, you seem to have a solution or did you just downgrade WordPress ??

Me too at this URL: https://uckfieldfestival.co.uk/festival-programme/

I am using the shortcode: [ai1ec view=”agenda”]

Bruno, I’m suddenly having the same problem but trying your CSS hasn’t helped, any other ideas?

Re-Save Permalinks?

I couldn’t make the functions.php file work but I managed to get rid of the date by commenting out lines 20-24 of content-page.php

<!– <?php } else { ?>

<header class=”entry-header”>
<?php the_title( ‘<h2 class=”entry-title”>‘, ‘</h2>’ ); ?>
</header><!– .entry-header
–>

Doesn’t seem to have affected anything else, dates are gone from pages and posts but… who knows?

Sorry I meant functions.php not footer.php

I tried creating a footer.php file in my child theme folder and it contained the code below and nothing else. I’m not exactly an advanced user so not sure that was was what you meant, but then I get a server error or blank page.

<?php

function tingle_byline( $html ){
return ”;
}
add_filter(‘entry_byline’, ‘tingle_byline’ );

Thanks Paul, I’ll have a look-maybe a simple on/off preference for the next version?
