It goes without saying that you should backup files and database first, but I just downgraded back to 3.8.1 after an accidental upgrade, and whatever database changes were made for 3.9 did not seem to be fatal when the files were restored. The only problem I saw was a plugin that WP had deactivated, and it was fine once I reactivated it.

This issue was resolved as originally stated (edit line 74 of my-calendar-core.php to: if( isset($this_post->ID) ) $id = $this_post->ID; ). Marking as resolved, because I forgot to earlier.

Thanks Joe. I’m glad I found your plugin; numerous others disconnect the calendar grid layer from the actual event output (eg. table grid html output first, then a bunch of event divs output afterward and absolutely positioned into place). Deep custom styling is a nightmare if there is no simple way to tell if a given cell contains any or which events. My Calendar not only contains the events within the cells but also has a nice selection of classes to style – quite a relief!

Sounds like you want to add the shortcode into the post, but then also filter by category slug and only have the one slide in that category. You can either use display:none in css to hide the nav elements or turn them off in the plugin settings. I did a quick test (since I need the same thing) and it looks like it doesn’t autoplay/animate if there’s only a single slide picked up, which makes sense of course.

Resolve didn’t take the first time, trying again…

Resolved – something up with the On-Site Google Analytics plugin was breaking things. Tracked down by finding the hook where it was failing in combination with comparing successful and failing HTML output. Solution – disable plugin for the moment.
