# Transcoding and Formatting Errors

* Looked at my site today to find an empty feed, despite having not changed anything
in weeks, and on the front-page too… }:-(
* Altogether too many non-backwards compatible changes going on with this plugin.
* So, a couple of problems I’ve identified (I’m sticking with 2.1.7 for now since
this is the last working version I’ve had).
* In 2.2.2 there’s a transcoding error, event location target is getting transcoding
quotes, so instead of :
* `target="_blank"`
* we’re getting :
* `target="_blank"`
* Next up, formatting. Since post 2.1.7 the formatting is missing from my event
feed created by the widget. This appears to be because the CSS is not being imported
any longer. After fixing the quote transcoding errors above, the diff I get from
2.1.7 -> 2.2.2 is :
* ```
diff gce-2.1.7.html gce-2.2.2-fix.html

* Adding back the first two missing lines restores the formatting for the event
feed.

* Does it help if you turn on the “Always Enqueue” option in the general settings?

* I’m pretty sure I’ve tried it before without success, but it seems to be working
now, at least for the css inclusion.
* The quote transcoding issue still persists.

* What are you using for your event builder codes, or are you using the simple
display options?

* No, I’ve left it as is. When I upgraded and event builder was born as such, the
code was there and I haven’t changed it.
* Besides, it’s just the “target” keyword for which the value quotes are transcoded,
and that would more likely be internal.

* Ok I found the problem:
* [https://github.com/pderksen/WP-Google-Calendar-Events/blob/master/google-calendar-events/includes/class-gce-event.php#L387](https://github.com/pderksen/WP-Google-Calendar-Events/blob/master/google-calendar-events/includes/class-gce-event.php#L387)
* That line there is the snippet `esc_attr( $newwindow )`. If you remove the `esc_attr`
wrapper then it should work.
* I will make sure to have this updated as well going forward. Thanks for the find.

* Good catch thought it was only an issue with the [link] so I only fixed it there.
Will make sure to get this into the next update.

* Assuming this got resolved since there has not been a reply here recently. Also
the more recent updates addressed this as well. Please let us know if you have
any more issues.
* Thanks!
