In reply to: [Event Organiser] List current and future “all day” eventsI have the same problem. I am using the Event Organiser “Events” widget. It’s set to show “Future & running events”, but it doesn’t show currently running events that are All Day events.
I don’t remember this being a problem in the past, but I don’t know when it started happening.
A fix would be much appreciated.

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Event page error for one language (using WPML)Update:
I reread the instructions for setting up The Events Calendar with WPML (https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/setting-up-the-events-calendar-with-wpml/) and found one setting that was different in my setup under the heading “Displaying your events in other languages when they are not translated”.
It recommends (I thought optionally, but it’s not clear): “Head over to WPML > Settings > Post Types Translation and select “Translatable – use translation if available or fallback to default language” for Events.”
In my case, the Events (tribe_events) post type listed in this section had a lock next to it and I originally didn’t want to mess with it. But after rereading the instructions, I unlocked it and changed the setting as recommended. This fixed the problem (specifically, the English event pages now load properly instead of giving an error)!
I’m happy that the English events are no longer broken, but there is a difference in how the calendar works now. Now a German event will show on the English calendar if there is no English translation (which is, of course, what the new option says it will do). This is not quite what we want.
Why does the original Post Type Translation option (“Translatable – only show translated items”) cause the English calendar to break?
Thanks for your reply, Ed. I also reached out to the author of WP Accessibility, Joe Dolson, and he had a look. Here is his assessment:
“It looks like it’s a conflict with the option ‘Remove title attributes inserted into post content and featured images’. That’s an option that parses content before displaying and removes title attributes. At a guess, The Events Calendar made a change either to the content they output that depends on a matching pattern or to the timing governing where their content is parsed such that this option is now effecting their output.”
So a temporary fix is to turn off the “Remove title attributes…” option in the WP Accessibility settings.
Thanks for looking into it.

I’ve actually solved the problem already (by changing the translation, as mentioned above). I just wanted to alert you of the cause of the problem. Although the real root of the problem seems to be that there is no page at the URL with the translated month in it.
If it is of interest, this is the URL that gives me the 404: https://glco.org/events/monat/
Again, it’s solved for me because I changed the ‘monat’ slug to ‘month’ in string translation. Now everything works when switching between list and month views.
