The Events Calendar 6.0.2

Summary

Maintenance Release

The latest version of The Events Calendar adds various date support to the REST API.

As always, we recommend testing updates on a staging site first, but it should all be smooth sailing.

New

New features included in this release:

We now support the strict_dates REST API argument in the /events endpoint to control the inclusiveness of the date parameters.
Support relative date parameters (e.g: starts_before, ends_after as REST API arguments in the /events endpoint to retrieve single-day and multi-day events in a single search.
Adds initial integration with Restrict Content Pro. This hides any events on the calendar views that the user is not allowed to view.

Fixed

Bugs that were squashed in this release:

Adds new function to properly escape event titles in URLs, so they are better handled by rewrite rules. Props to @shisho585 for the fix!
We now avoid resetting post data in some Divi theme and plugins.
Corrected a few misnamed custom prop references in postcss.
Corrected an issue with the event venue when saving in our WPML integration. Props to @dgwatkins for the fix!
We now correctly deprecate the Tribe__Events__Main::get_closest_event method.
Correctly set found_postsand max_num_pages when redirecting a query to the custom tables.
We now do not run wasteful queries on switch_blog in multi-site installations.
We now do not throw errors during migration when notices or errors come from other plugins.
Ensure tribe_is_month and tribe_is_by_date work as expected.
Ensure we handle if By_Day_View gets a null $event_obj->dates. Props to @juliangumenita for the fix!
Remove strict type hinting from Custom Tables v1 code that would cause fatal errors in some environments.
We resolved problems with tribe_get_full_address() which was not properly returning the venue address.

Created a filterable function tec_events_get_today_button_label() for the text on the “Today” button on calendar views.
Added a filter for the link title and aria-label, so they match the button text more closely.
Added filters:

- tec_events_today_button_title and tec_events_{view_slug}_view_today_button_title to filter the link title and aria-label
