The Events Calendar

Events Calendar Pro 5.8.1

Summary

Maintenance Release

This updated version of Events Calendar Pro includes some tweaks and bug fixes related to Summary View.

As always, we recommend updating on a staging site, just to be safe, but it should all be smooth sailing.

The Events Calendar Pro 5.8.0 and higher is only compatible with Events Calendar 5.8.0 and higher.


✅ Fixed

Bugs that were squashed in this release:
  • Pagination is now prevented from influencing the fetching of events for the Events List and Featured Venue widgets.
  • Plugin now shows the correct cost on the Summary View for events that do not have event tickets or RSVPs yet have a cost value set.
  • Ensured “Summary” gets translated correctly in view selector.
  • No longer enqueue scripts (and localized scripts) if they’re already enqueued.
  • No longer attempt to enqueue scripts too early preventing them from being enqueued later.

? Tweaks

A few tweaks we made under the hood:
  • Changed the text of the Featured Venue Widget “view more” link.
  • Added empty alt tag to featured images in the map view if user doesn’t explicitly define one.

? Translations

Updated language files and strings:
  • 3 new strings
  • 1 strings updated
  • 0 strings fuzzied
  • 0 string obsoleted
