posterboard not loading

[Neeraj Malve]

I have added below shortcode for posterboard:
[event_board posts_per_page=”9″ filters=”category” ] on bmcadventures. com.
Out of 10 refreshes around 4-5 times the data is not being loaded. I am worried that visitors will never know if there are any events at all. I have seen previous topics about this with the problem of reproduction.

I somewhat agree that this could be resolved by clearing cache (It works fine in incognito mode), but for visitor clearing cache everytime wont be a solution. Is it possible to find some solution on plugin end such that the cache mess doesnt affect loading of posterboard?

One additional doubt, on above plugin I list of categories and “Uncategorized”, I want to avoid showing Uncategorized, I have no events posted which are not part of any category.

thanks in advance.

Hi Neeraj,

Do you still see this problem without any filters applied (the filters can still be present, I just mean, that no filters are actually applied).

One (potential) explanation for this is that, if a filter is applied, the 10 events added to the posterboard could be hidden due to that filter. So it appears that no events have been added.

Are able to provide a link to the page?

Thanks for your reply, its on the homepage of https://bmcadventures.com. I will check without filters too and let you know.

Neeraj,

I’ve just tested this, are there any more events to display? All the queries for more posts simply return an empty set.

Secondly, the ‘load more’ bar gets ‘stuck’ on ‘loading’. This is a bug with the 3.0.0 version and an update will be released today. If you need to apply the change yourself, it’s here: https://github.com/stephenharris/Event-Organiser-Posterboard/commit/875ddb3cadb5f2867d005b22777f1682935700c3 but you’ll need to apply it to the minified copy. It should otherwise by functioning correctly (it’s just the label, and the fact it doesn’t disappear when there are no more events).

no after loading all events also it shows “loading” which gives a feel to visitor that there is something more to come. Does this bug make it empty all the time or only few times? the problem i see is few queries are missing the data.

btw a side note, if you know about why it shows “Uncategorized” in the category filter?

Thanks

R.e. ‘Uncategorised’, it doesn’t check to see if there are any, it always displays: https://github.com/stephenharris/Event-Organiser-Posterboard/blob/41831e55012ccd0383d27666985bc7d942da7fa3/event-organiser-posterboard.php#L140

This is something that can be improved in a future release.

no after loading all events also it shows “loading”

Yes, I realise that, that was the bug I was referring to (a fix is being realised tonight). However, the ‘loading’ bar remains functional in that clicking it will attempt to load more events. In your case, however, the request comes back empty. It’s not clear to me if it should be empty or if there are more events to load.
