I manage this plugin for another owner.
Its always problematic, for years.  
 

Please don't take this as diminishing your troubles. That is for sure not my intention. I just wanted to add a comment. When this plugin was at vers 2.x I had all sorts of random problems but ever since it moved to vers 3 it has worked perfectly for me. It just chugs along doing its job without issue. So... it makes me wonder if you *might* have a conflict with something. I can't imagine what it could be though. I try to follow the chatter on this plugin and don't recall seeing anyone say they experienced the same or similar issue to yours. I could easily have missed something and if I have then apologies

Are you sure you're using the latest version of the Plugin?

Heya Mevent, thanks for the reply.

Yes of course, we are using the latest version.
This has happened on several versions.

I tried running it on a local windows test servers and a similar set up on a live linux server.

As I mentioned the plugin works, its the GUI that messes up, making adding new entries or creators impossible.
When the plugin is loaded with a new config and empty data and empty lang files, it works.

However upon server restart or plugin reload, the data file gets messed up.
And overwrites or adds new entries to the creators, usually duplicating your default entries that are prepared on first set up.
These are duplicated with Empty ones.

I cant tell but it must be a discrepency with the CaSe of the data file names.

I see data files for EventsManager but the plugin is EventManager,
Linux systems are  cAsE SeNsitive in oxide, maybe that's why there is a mismatch too, I usually account for this and rename any relevant files
but the same issue occurs on the windows based test servers.

I'm not complaining,
I simply have no idea why this is happening and its been an ongoing issue for us in several versions.

EDIT - I see you uploaded another version after I wrote the message yesterday, we have not used version 3.3.8
was anything else changed other than a new event entry in the default events? 

Of course I will make sure to test this new version from 18 hours ago.

I cant record a video, it takes too long and I dont have the bandwidth.

Please take a look at the screenshots I have attached below.

Files:
"Em1.jpg" so this is what happens after a plugin reload. 
"Em2.jpg" a data file modified by the plugin, this is what happens in the oxide/data/EventManager/CreatorSettings.json 
"Em3.jpg" is showing the default unmodified event entries of the Mevent events.

This is with version 3.3.7. 

Nothing has been modified. 
Fresh install, again shows normal Entries for creator Mevent, of Mevent's events.

after reload this happens and keeps happening and adding blank entries, 
Then the GUi can not be used in the creator area.

Unloading the plugin, Modifying the entries in the data files and reloading or in the GUI have the same result.

Any suggestions?

Ok, thank you for the message.

Are you telling me that version 3.3.9 uploaded within the last 30 minutes should fix the configuration and data file problems? 
I'll be sure to test it out and send any feedback.

Thank you for your time. 
 

I'm considering purchasing it.
Is it still possible to implement the feature previously mentioned in the Discussion, such as unloading plugins on days that are not targeted for execution based on weekday events?
Currently, I use a custom cron-like plugin that executes commands on each day of the week and at each time, but if it's possible to purchase commands, or at least just unload, I'd like to migrate some of my settings to this. If anyone knows of anything about this, please let me know.

Why unload plugins if these events just don't run? O.o
