Brilliant, thanks for your help!

I just updated the plugin and it’s working BUT it only displays the first date that’s listed in the PDF correctly. The rest just say e.g. [_format_dob “d M Y”]

Weird!?

Great, thanks for that @bqnaan!

No problem!

I’m not sure why it’s working like that now – something in the update has changed things. I’m also struggling to get the date format to show correctly in the PDF – it was fine before the recent updates – so that’s my next problem to solve!

I’m not sure if when you mean that they’re unreadable – is this because it’s showing code in them? If so then go into your form in Contact Form 7 and click on the Mail tab and scroll to where there’s a checkbox that says ‘Use HTML content type’ – make sure this is checked and it should sort the problem.

I’ve just worked out what the issue was. If you go into your form in Contact Form 7 and click on the Mail tab and scroll to where there’s a checkbox that says ‘Use HTML content type’ – make sure this is checked and it should sort the problem. It worked for me!

I too am getting this problem and am trying to solve it. If you find a solution please let me know! For me it only seems to be for the recipient’s email. The email that is sent to the form filler is fine.

I am using the Divi theme and having problems – I get a page not found error when I click on the newsletter post’s URL – could this be theme related too?

Hi Geoff
This site has been rebuilt recently but we’re still seeing the same issue so wondered if we could look at it again and try and work out why. The site under construction is here:

https://www.lympstone.org/NEW

If you go to the what’s on page you’ll see that the next month works but not the previous month. I’ve deactivated all but the events plugin and reverted to a default theme but it still does it. Could there be something in the database that may do this as it’s using a fresh WP install and a different theme?

Thanks for any pointers …

Hi Scott

I’m not sure. I’m just using the plugin out of the box. You can see the form here:

Any thoughts appreciated!

Hi Geoff
Thanks for the reply .. that’s weird, I have literally just worked out what I needed to add. Rather than the echo shortcode I had to use an array and it works. I have no idea why but it has! e.g. <?php chimpy_form(array(‘2’)) ?>
??

Hi Geoff
I’ve tried removing all but the events calendar plugin and using a default WP theme but it doesn’t seemed to have solved it. I also tried clearing the cache but no joy. Will see else I can strip out incase of a conflict. If I find the solution I’ll let you know. In the meantime if you have any other suggestions please let me know!

Hi Brian
That would be great if you could as I keep having to update the shortcode php file every time there’s an update. Thanks!

Thanks Brian. It kind of works but I wanted to put individual events into the columns I’ve set up on the site. I can use the css for now though. Thanks!
