Problem solved.

The culprit was an incomplete restoration of a full backup. Apparently not all files had been restored during the restoration.

Thank you sir. That fixed it up nicely.

Sorry, didn’t give enough information.

The values set for those items is one week. I upload photos, go to the photo album and they are not marked as new.

The other strange thing (related?) is that when I upload photos and I go to the album in the back end to add a description, although the photo as uploaded, the thumbnail does not appear.

Maybe I should try reinstalling the plugin.

Actually, I’m wondering if that is the solution.

Don’t reload the plugin.
Don’t change the permissions on the server folder.
Just simply create a new category (temporary) and set an arbitrary color for it.

My guess (and that’s all it is) is that doing so causes all of the category colors to be rebuilt and they will then display properly.

I had the same problem as everyone else.

Tried mcmito’s trick with install/change to mod777, activate… didn’t work. The css color file was not created.

Then I had a thought. All of my old categories with their corresponding colors were still there in the back end… so I just created one new, temporary category, with a color.

Poof! All of the colors for all of the categories suddenly reappeared.

Cursory look shows everything is back to the way it should be.

Thank you, Eran.

I have no idea what I did before.

BINGO! Beta (9.8.51) passes the initial test. I set an event for the future, changed time, it was posted correctly.

I’ll play around a bit with other features and get back to you.

Good so far!

Eran, did you change the version number to 9.8.5.1?

I’m wondering if I didn’t load it properly as Dashboard/Plugins is showing 9.8.5

Problem still exists for me.

Eran,

Your fix worked. Updating the colours reset them and everything is peachy… colour wise.

Oops. I just noticed that category colours are not showing.

1. In the WordPress Dashboard / Calendar / Categories, all of my categories are there and they all have the appropriate colours displayed.

2. Go the main Events calendar and all of the categories listed at the top are uncoloured.

3. Look down at events being displayed in the calendar and they are all highlighted in dark blue.

4. Look at the sidebar widget display and the events listed show no colour.

You can look at https://www.peachlandnews.com/events to see what I mean. You can go to https://peachlandnews.com/blog/2011/07/21/man-74-dies-while-volunteering/ to see what the widget display looks like.

Good deal.

Ditto here. No matter what I do, a new event is saved under today and starting at the current time (the time I click ‘save’).

Fully upgraded WordPress. I just upgraded to the new version of the plugin.

(By the way, thanks for fixing the ‘duration’ display problem!)
