Hi Steve. I figured out it was the login plugin that was preventing the form from showing up. Please try again (using any browser) and it should show up now. Thanks.

Ok, well, I somewhat knew the issue would be related to that both plugins we’re using a third party library called Chosen. It’s what makes the fancy drop downs. I’m using an even older version (1yr old) than The Events Calendar (9mon old).

I think the fix will be to copy this file overwriting of this file.

Hi Steve,

That fixed most of it! The dropdowns are now expanding correctly. The only remaining issue seems to be the small arrow that normally appears on the right side of the dropdown field (“down” prior to being clicked; “up” arrow when the list is expanded). Do you happen to know how I’d get that to appear when Connections is enabled? I’m guessing that I’d need to copy something from the Events Calendar’s stylesheet to Connection’s stylesheet? I went ahead and deactivated Connections so you can see the arrows in action.

Thanks again for your help,
Sean

That is because they Chosen devs changed their HTML markup between versions. You’ll likely have to replace the Chosen files in the /connections/assets/js and /connections/assets/css/ with those from /the-events-calendar/vendor/chosen/public/.

I just updated the dev version with the latest version of Chosen; 1.1.0, and everything seems to be fine.

Thanks Steve. I did as you suggested (replacing the Chosen files in the /connections/assets directories with those from /the-events-calendar/vendor/chosen/public, but I’m still not seeing the arrows on the drop-downs. I tried also updating chosen-sprite.png to see if that’d do the trick, but no luck. Are the any other files I’d need to update other than those? I must be missing something.

I’m out of ideas at the moment. If I could see the page after these changes, that would help.

When you updated the files in Connections, did you update the chosen.min.css file with the one from The Events Manager? I ask because it sill seems like the old one is being loaded.
