Also, now I am getting 404 errors on most of the pages… please help!
Update: I updated the Traveler theme (old dev told me that it had the new select2 files), updated WP and then I went into settings–>location and disabled the default location. THAT WORKED!
Then, I updated a couple of the GD add-on plugins, and I started to get an error when going to visit the website saying it was not secure and the certificate didn’t match (ssl).
I called godaddy on something separate I was working on (needed FTP information to set up scanning with Sucuri) and also asked them about this. He took me through disabling and resetting the SSL. He said it could take a few hours but it should be 30 mins. Sometimes I will go to the site and it looks ok with the exception to the logo and the hero image which dont appear, other times it still says not secure. Any ideas???
Thank you!
Ok, I spoke to an old developer and he mentioned that he could update the files.
I also know the PHP needs to be updated so I contacted godaddy to do that. Godaddy wanted me to make sure that the themes and plugins were all up to date because it could cause a conflict. Should I go ahead and update all of those before updating PHP or update PHP without updating the plugins and themes?
I asked the old developer and he said that if I update the theme, the new files are in it. He said by updating it it would overwrite the old select2 folders?
Thank you for your help!
Good Morning! This is the message I received from Shine Theme in regards to updating to select2 Javascript file in their theme and to use the full version of select2 (attached). Is this something we can do without them?
Is it best to do your last three points on a staging site?
– Update theme Traveler to recent because it is too old(might be developer have updated select2 library in recent version).
– Your site is running with PHP version of 5.5.38, it is recommended a minimum PHP version of 5.6.
– Update WordPress core and some outdated plugins.Thank you very much!

Good Morning,
Does anyone have an update on this or know how I can fix it? I still cannot add events or businesses with the correct location, via the social importer function or in the backend.
Thanks for your help!
AlisonIt looks like everything is selected correctly in the backend? US Virgin Islands, and the British Virgin Islands (but none of the British islands are in the “islands” category). I’m wondering if “virgin islands” needs to be added to the countries list, but that isn’t an option.
Ok thank you! So this will fix the issue with the correct locations not appearing from the drop down when trying to add an event?

I tried the 60/30 and I like the width of the content but the featured listings and events on the right side bar are still really far down on the page. Also I fixed the margins on the sides of the page a few weeks ago but I am realizing now that that fix is no longer there.
Trying to find a professional to convert everything over to V2 I don’t know if I can handle that on my own. Talking to someone on Monday that might be able to help and I contacted someone from your experts directory last week.
Hi there! The developer uploaded the plugins, but didn’t activate them so I think I might need to do it on my own. If I follow those articles I hope I don’t mess anything up. In the process of getting a staging site now. I have about 200 business listings, and I am utilizing Traveller theme with some custom CSS (not a geo theme). I don’t want to change the templates or layouts or get a new homepage I simply want the updated version for the new functionalities and ability to style the listings more easily etc. I want it to look like how it looks right now but just change the fonts on the listings and may want to change more styling in the future so you guys recommended just upgrading the plugin now.
Thank you for the events listings fix! The link worked for the charity section as well so thank you for that too!

Do you know why my events tab isn’t working anymore? It just stopped? I asked the developer but haven’t heard back yet
Also, how do I link to a Custom post category? In my case, linking to all listings that are non profits– what is that url? Screen shots attached here.
Events Tab: https://www.whattodo-vi.com/events
Charities can be found in upper right-hand corner of site: http://www.whattodo-vi.com
I have someone helping me update to V2, I think I could do by myself with the converter tool but I don’t trust myself enough, haha. I suppose it would make sense to get the directions for V2 hoping that he can complete it soon. Is that a pretty fast process?
