Hi there,

Since an auto-update to version 3.3.4 when you view the description field for an event in the front-end of the site.

example:

to register to become a donor or to book a session please visit <a href=”https://www.blood.co.uk/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener”>www.blood.co.uk</a> , calling customer service on 0300 123 23 23 or download the app ‘NHS Give Blood’.</p> <p><strong>CERES HALL // APPOINT

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks

Dave

Install the Rollback Plugins plugin and go back the the previous version. Worked for me.

adamshand, that worked! Should have thought of that earlier. Thanks.

Hi all,
I re-installed version 3.2.2 and all seems to work again (when I went back to 3.3.3 the events wouldn’t load correctly on the main events page). I got the old versions from github.

Bonjour @sceneouverte,
It worked for me, you will need to deactivate 3.3.4 before you can activate the re-installed version
Good luck!

The issue is caused by this line in the template file content-single-event_listing.php
line 114

echo esc_attr(apply_filters(‘wpem_the_content’, $event->post_content));

esc_attr() escapes the HTML and prevents WordPress from parsing blocks.

Changing it to:

echo apply_filters(‘the_content’, $event->post_content);

fixes the issue and renders the content correctly for me.

Tested on WordPress 6.x with multiple themes (Kadence, Twenty Twenty-Five).
