I figured out the issue. Upon pasting it into the wordpress editor, it was changing the feed url to a hyperlink. Because of that, the plugin was ignoring it and using just [artistdatapress] (which was then pulling in the future date URL from the settings page.)

Thanks again for your help.

So bizarre. I can change the shortcode to any URL (cnn.com, does not matter) and it still renders the current dates. There is a bug in there some where that is forcing the shortcode to the future date URL.

Unfortunately, adding feedurl does not override it. I used the following on the test page and it still renders future dates.
[artistdatapress feedurl=https://feeds.artistdata.com/xml.shows/artist/AR-33A5FF499DD36E7E/xml/past]

Appreciate the help.

On the settings page you are required to enter the “future” XML feed URL. It appears that URL renders both the future and past dates.

It looks like the latest WordPress update killed the ability for the plugin to read two separate feeds.

I tried creating a new page (that uses the main default template) and ended up with the same result. The Past shortcode renders the future dates. If I change the URL on the Settings page to the “Past”, both the future and past pages will show the Past dates. Can’t get both to work. Only one or the other.

We simplified the information, removing much of the data that comes through the feed. I tried your shortcode, but it did not work. Still shows current dates.

[artistdatapress feelurl=<‘https://feeds.artistdata.com/iframe.shows/artist/AR-33A5FF499DD36E7E/iframe/past&#8217; from dashboard>]

We found the AR code, but I am not a fan of using iFrames. More flexibility with the shortcode. However, it will not render the past dates. Frustrating.

Thanks for the reply.

Found the AR code. However the plugin does not seem to want to render PAST dates, only future. Even if I change future to past in the feed URL. Have you seen this as well?

Dan – We experienced the same thing, however not with future, but with past dates. Can you let me know how you located your artist code? Ours is currently reading it via the band name, not the code.

Many thanks!

It still takes a few hours to update. The fix that I implemented doesn’t allow for instant updates. However, since I amended the code, I have had no issues with new dates and updates appearing successfully.

After mucking around with the code for some time, I believe I found a fix. The commented line is the original, the one below is the update.

//set_transient( 'adp_' . $key, $xml, HOUR_IN_SECONDS );
				set_transient( $xml, HOUR_IN_SECONDS );

I am no PHP expert, but once I made this change, updates were appearing on our site immediately.

Another quirk I noticed is that if the ticket purchase URL (<ticketURI>) and price (<ticketPrice>) are not entered into ArtistData, the ticket link will not appear on the site.

Hope this helps.

I commented out the line suggested above, but my site is still not syncing up with the XML feed from ArtistData. It appears that new dates are appearing, but updates to existing dates are not. I would rather not have my client have to delete a date and re-enter into ArtistData, instead have updates propagate correctly.

Any thoughts? Note, I have .71 installed.
