Change log

08.07.2026 Version 5.5.8

- Fixed event **weather forecast** to use the event timezone for daily grouping and date/time display (previously used UTC).
- RSVP attendance panel now shows a **committed persons** badge (total headcount across all attendees) above the slots-remaining status, so organizers can see capacity usage at a glance.
- Added **Custom Field** and **Custom Checkbox** elements to the event layout builder for displaying submit form custom field values on the front end.

02.06.2026 Version 5.5.7

- Fixed missing .pot file.
- Added new version notificator in the calendar dashboard.

27.05.2026 Version 5.5.6

- Attendee filter (filter__attendee / attendee) now shows only the specific recurring occurrences an attendee RSVP’d to, instead of all future repeats.

- Date and time are now wrapped in separate elements for easier styling (date, time, utc).

- Legacy imports now safely encode 4-byte UTF-8 characters (e.g. emoji) for better MySQL utf8 compatibility.

28.03.2026 Version 5.5.5

- Event Tickets Widget: Recurring events now show the next upcoming date. 

When you use the Event Tickets widget without specifying a date, it will now automatically display the next upcoming occurrence for recurring events.

You can now include the event date in your ticket button label. Use '{{event_date}}' in the Button text field and it will be replaced with the formatted event date on the front-end.

- Fixed order item event meta disappearing in order received emails/pages when ticket QR is disabled

02.03.2026 Version 5.5.4

- Fixed an issue where the minmax_intersect filter didn’t apply in the list shortcode
- Fixed an issue where the minmax_intersect filter didn’t apply when event prefetching was enabled
- Added an option to bulk edit events' calendar and permissions
- Other minor fixes

20.02.2026 Version 5.5.3

- Bug fix where ICS imports incomplete RRULE string
- Bug fix where Wordfence plugin prevented access to certain calendar REST endpoints

06.02.2026 Version 5.5.2

- Fixed an issue where the "Display event title on all cells" option did not work in "Fixed" mode for Month and Week layout.

28.01.2026 Version 5.5.1

- New option: Choose exactly which top menu filters start unchecked on initial calendar load (Calendars, Categories, Locations, Organizers, Guests).
- The toggle button now shows "Deselect All / Select All" conditionally instead of just "Select All".

12.01.2026 Version 5.5.0

- Bug fix where events submitted to private BuddyPress Group were assigned public read permission.
- Added single event page inside BuddyPress Group Page and Member Page.
- New option in BuddyPress settings: "Member events page slug".
- New option in BuddyPress settings: "Group events page slug".
- Admin events list now display start and end dates (was start date only).
- Removed "deleted event" and "edited event" from the public activity filters.
