After doing an automatic upgrade through the WordPress admin control panel, I discovered that Events Calendar 6.6 was accidentally released as stable.

“The very unstable development version of Events Calendar was showing as stable.  This was a mistake made in the readme file.  Please be aware of this.  If you auto upgrade when prompted then you will need to revert to 6.5.2.1 if you are not wanting to do some testing.  Our apologies.”

The release was so unstable I needed to revert to the prvious version of Events Calendar (even opening it in IE 7 was a guaranteed crash, Widgets were disabled, etc.), problem was I couldn’t locate the previous release!

I searched the Events calendar Website, The WordPres Plugin Site, and the web for hours before finially locating the previous release.

So I’m posting events-calendar.6.5.2.1 here for others that might need to revert to the stable release.

This adventure is yet another example of why you should always backup your database and core files prior to upgrading your WordPress install or updating your WordPress plugins.

Mistakes are made, and sometimes you will need to revert, so it’s always a good idea to search the web for issues on a WordPress upgrades or plugin updates.
