    In this discussion on the old forums, I was told that if we used the REM 1.1.4 or 1.1.5, we should not update past EE 3.1.21P because it would break the recurring events templates.

    However, I see there’s now a 1.1.6 release of REM, and two new core updates since the 3.1.22P which originally broke the REM templates, so I’m wondering if it’s fixed now? Or if it isn’t, if there’s an ETA on the fix so I can use REM with an updated core plugin. Thanks!

    Side note: it would be nice if you included a changelog with the REM updates. I know I’ve asked about this before, but I don’t see one for 1.1.6, so I’ll keep pestering you. ;)

      The only thing added to REM 1.1.6 was the 1-click update feature.

      To clarify things a bit, you can actually use the REM templates with the current version if you use the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode to display the list of events. Using [EVENT_LIST] does not work in Event Espresso 3.1.23 or .24.

      I’ve been working on the templates over the weekend and I think I have this and another issue resolved. They do need some testing and code cleanup. So if you decide to wait for 1.1.7 or use .24 + the workaround, look for 1.1.7 to be released sometime soon.

        Sounds good. We’re more or less closed for the holidays, so I’m not really in a rush to update anyway. I’ll just wait for a fix that allows me to continue using [EVENT_LIST], especially since I’ve never used any parameters with [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] and don’t really know how it works.

          Hi Josh,

          with the REM. I am using the 1.1.7REM and 3.1.24.3P EE. I Uploaded the event-list and event-list-display to the uploads folder. Placed the CSS in for drop down list of dates… however When I use [event-list] on my page (default template) i get Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/sdcassoc/public_html/preproduction/wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/event_list.php on line 74. When i use [event-list recurrence=true] I get a blank page. When I change the template of the page to page-event_list.php I get the events but not in the drop down I want.

          When I use [espresso-events] It looks exactly like it is supposed to but when you click on one of the dates the registration page shows exactly what event-list shows, the class title description and a register now link that is a drop down that shows the class dates.

          The call to the registration URL in event-display.php for recurring echo ‘‘;

          A bit frustrating. Any ideas?

          thanks

            The recurring events templates do not support the [EVENT_LIST] shortcode at this time. Using the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode should work though.

            You should check and make sure that the page set as the main registration page is set to point to a page that has the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode on it.

              Hu?

              I created a page that has the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] on it and am using the recurring event-list-display.php to show it with the drop down css. Here is the URL http://sdcassociates.com/preproduction/test-ee-page-template/

              There is a Event Registration page that also has [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] on it. When I click on the date to register I assume it would take me to the registration page. Instead it takes me to this URL http://sdcassociates.com/preproduction/event-registration/?e_reg=register&event_id=5&name_of_event=Pricing%20&Negotiating_Change_Orders_&Claims_Like_a_Pro with identical content of the page I just left.

              ummmm….

              Thanks for the speedy response GREATLY appreciated.

                Incidentally when i change
                http://sdcassociates.com/preproduction/event-registration/?e_reg=register&event_id=5&name_of_event=Pricing%20&Negotiating_Change_Orders_&Claims_Like_a_Pro

                to

                http://sdcassociates.com/preproduction/event-registration/?regevent_action=register&event_id=5&name_of_event=Pricing%20&Negotiating_Change_Orders_&Claims_Like_a_Pro

                the registration page displays properly

                  Which of the two pages you linked to above is set as the main registration page in Event Espresso>General Settings>Page settings?

                    July 13, 2012 at 2:48 pm

                    The main registration page in settings is Event Registration and that page has the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] call on it.

                    So I guess the answer is the second one.

                      Just fixed it – pretty hacky but changed

                      echo '';

                      to

                      echo '';

                      in recurring templates event_list_display.php

                        that didn’t turn out well

                        Change the a href from

                        .$e[‘registration_url’].

                        to

                        /event-registration/?ee=’.$e[‘event_id’].

                          Glad you found a work around. There were some recent changes to the event list templates that did not get translated over to the recurring events templates, which looks like there may be even more things broken with these than what I was aware. I’ll create a few new tickets to fix these based on what you’ve reported here.
