Event calendar plugin breaks Beaver Builder

[pfdemp (Paul)]

I was updating some plugins today. When I updated The Events Calendar Pro from 7.7.1 to 7.7.4 it caused the Beaver Builder editor to stop working. When I activate Beaver Builder on one of my pages, I get a blank white space at the top where the menu should be, and none of the modules on the page respond.

I am working with TEC support since it was their plugin causing the problem, but I wanted to check here as well. Here are the errors I get when I try to use Beaver Builder.

It will be fixed in the next hotfix, if you are desperate you can either downgrade TEC or make the following simple edit:

Open classes/class-fl-builder-model.php at ~L4194
look for $widget->fl_category = __( 'WordPress Widgets', 'fl-builder' ); and change the line under it to:
$widgets[ (string) $widget->name ] = $widget;

The update that fixes this issue has now been released.
