# 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](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/the-events-calendar/creating-and-using-a-wordpress-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
