# The Events Calendar 6.9.1

### Summary

Maintenance Release

The latest update of The Events Calendar ensures Elementor HTML tags are properly escaped to avoid potential Stored Cross Site Scripting.

As always, we recommend[ testing updates](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/the-events-calendar/creating-and-using-a-wordpress-staging-site/) on a staging site first, but it should all be smooth sailing.

#### ✅ Fixes

Bugs squashed in this release:

- Ensure Elementor HTML tags are properly escaped to avoid potential Stored Cross Site Scripting.
- Added check to `disable\_blocks\_on\_display` for if `$content` is `null`.
- Ensure Aggregator translations are not loaded before init.
- Fixes edge cases where the nonce\_user\_logged\_out hook was returning a value when the user was logged out, causing the nonce validation to fail.
- Fix the filter name `tec\_views\_v2\_subscribe\_links\_{$slug}\_label` which was accidentally changed in a previous release.
- Re-add logic to add page template options from theme to Display Settings.
- Update Tribe\_\_Events\_\_Aggregator\_\_Errors to ensure we don’t load translations before `init`.
- Update uses of unload\_textdomain to ensure they allow JIT loading of translations afterward.
- Updated the event search page to handle search results better for screen readers, with alerts noting the results of the search.
