Fix deployed for broken webcal import in 2.0.3
It recently came to our attention that prior to releasing the 2.0.3 build, we inadvertently changed the webcal feed version number in the Events Calendar PRO plugin code. This in turn made it impossible for some users to import their events into external calendars (google calendar or iCal) without seeing an error message telling them “iCal (or other) can’t read this calendar file.” This issue has since been patched in the Events Calendar PRO 2.0.3 …

How To Hide Events From Unregistered Users
DISCLAIMER: This is a quick hack provided by a user, and not a foolproof solution. A determined visitor could still see all event data in the HTML markup, with Firebug or other browser dev tools, by viewing the page source or by turning off CSS in their browser. Google will also see the content. A foolproof method here would be done in full php and is beyond the scope of a simple tutorial. Users familiar …

Patch for The Events Calendar 2.0.2 Date Bug
Some under the hood clean-up in TEC 2.0.2 introduced a bug that only occurs in certain circumstances. Generally this bug shows itself when events have been retrieved through WP’s get_posts, instead of the tribe_get_events() function, so the meta-data isn’t retrieved automatically. Until 2.0.3 is released (with a few other bug fixes) here’s a patch you can apply to fix your date display in the meantime. The file in question is: /wp-content/plugins/events/public/template-tags/date.php The patched code can …

PRO License Keys: When You Need Them & When You Don’t
There’s been a bit of confusion surrounding when you do and don’t need your Events Calendar PRO license key lately, so I wanted to shed some light on the matter. The license keys serve two specific purposes: granting you access to the support forums at tri.be, and clearing you for access to future plugin updates as they come. This means that if you want to make sure your plugin is current — you should probably …
