 * I have just upgraded to gce 2.0.2 but still have a problem which came to light
   a few days back when I moved to WordPress 4.0 I was using gce on our church homepage:
   [http://www.stthomasstluke.org.uk/](http://www.stthomasstluke.org.uk/) If I use
   gce in the 2nd column to display up and coming events then this results in the
   wrong RH sidebar being displayed. As a workaround, I am using a direct feed from
   google calendar to get around the problem but would like to return to using gce
   asap.

 * So it is just displaying the widget in the incorrect sidebar that you choose 
   in the admin setting?

 * I am assuming that you got this resolved since you haven’t posted back here. 
   If there are any other issues please let me know.
 * Thanks!

 * Nick, as of version 2.0.3.1 the problem was still there. I am currently away 
   from home and haven’t yet had the chance to try it with the latest version and
   won’t be able to do so for another week yet. Let me come back to you in a week
   or so. If the problem is still there I will also send some screenshots to illustrate
   the problem.

 * Nick, I have just checked things out and the problem is still there. I have updated
   to 2.0.5.1 before running these tests. If I include this code:
    [google-calendar-
   events id=”1″ type=”list-grouped” title=”” max=”12″] in the 2nd column of our
   web page then the wrong RH sidebar is displayed, WordPress displays the sidebar
   used on all subpages see for example: [http://www.stthomasstluke.org.uk/aboutus/sundays/](http://www.stthomasstluke.org.uk/aboutus/sundays/)
   However, our homepage has its own unique sidebar. Everything works fine if I 
   replace the gce code with a direct feed, see: [http://www.stthomasstluke.org.uk/](http://www.stthomasstluke.org.uk/)

 * So are you putting the shortcode into a text widget or something similar or are
   you actually using the GCE widget that is provided with the plugin?

 * Nick, the code is in a text box. I am happy to try the GCE widget if you wish.

 * Nick a couple of days ago I fixed the problem. I noticed from the web pages that
   the shortcode syntax was different from the previous version. Making everything
   consistent with the new syntax fixed the issue.
