Do you have a page named calendar_event.php in your theme? If so, make sure that it contains <?=$event->getDateString()?> somewhere in it.

If you don't, then it should be using the calendar_event.php file found in packages/calendar/page_types/calendar_event.php, which should contain this string. Does it? If you look in your page is there an empty DIV after your h1 tag ?

I am running a theme, but the calendar is installed separately within the packages folder. I do see the calendar_event.php you speak of, and yes it does include <div><?php echo $event->getDateString();?></div>

but it doesnt print out anything. I add dummy html text within the tags and it doesnt print out anything to my pages, as though this page isnt the page printing out the request.

empty

I installed a calendar_event.php file to my theme and now I am able to display a date, but the date is December 31, 1969, 4:00 pm for all events. So it must not be reading something correctly.

Im not sure what i have to modify on my pages, themes, settings in order to get it to display a valid date.

If you edit your event and look at its properties, does it have a start and end date?

I do get a event start and end date in the event page properties page. Here is a link to my Calendar page in actionhttp://c5.westop.org/eaop/about/events-calendar/...... I also built a mini 3 event side calendar for all other non calendar pages as seen onhttp://c5.westop.org/eaop/

So the dates for the events are there, but somehow the individual event page is not pulling the data correctly.

Testing 5.4.1 with the latest calendar doesn't duplicate this problem. I can't really know more unless I have access to the site.

which access in needed ftp or concrete 5 login

This is what we did to get calendar to work.

Removing "parent" from line7 of site/packages/calendar/blocks/controller/page_types/calendar_event.php

$ce = CalendarEvent::getByID($c->getCollectionParentID(), 'ACTIVE');
