I've got a strange problem with events not showing up on one server, but showing up fine on another? Is there anything that gets cached to the local server that needs to be refreshed? I've cleared the views cache and site cache numerous times, but doesn't seem to solve the issue? Importing the view to the non-working server doesn't work either, but importing the view the other way works fine? I've attached the debug info, but it doesn't seem like it could be this since it works fine on one.

Not sure of the cause of this yet, but it appears the issue is that the events are not drawn correctly when first loading the timeline. If you scroll forward in time they eventually appear and then you can scroll back to see the full data set. I've tried all the various "Initial date focus" values, but nothing seems to work? Has anyone else seen this issue? I'll keep looking into why this could be happening.

Please describe bug reports in a more understandable way. I'm sorry but I cannot follow your explanations well. And I don't have any idea on how to rebuild your bug, which is necessary in order to help you. Please read How to report bugs effectively. Thank you.

Further I want to ask you to check the following things:
1. When using another views style plugin (f.e. "unformatted" or "table") do you get results on the server where no timeline events are showing up?
2. Does the classic timeline view, that is provided after installing the module, work or not? You can get there by browsing to http://YOURSITE/timeline/nodes

Please provide more information on this issue.

Please have in mind that the initial date setting logic is not perfect right now. #584086: Improving intial date settings logic is treating this issue. But in general it shouldn't effect the problems you are describing.

I did a bit more testing and actually found this issue from 5.x branch which helped: #207887: Scalability (Timeline with a lot of events)

For some reason when I had the number of nodes to display to anything over 48, all events would not show up initially until scrolling forward in time.

After reading the above issue, I set the limit to "0", meaning unlimited nodes to display. I then had to add a date filter to only show those nodes >= to some date. This worked fine.

If this is a known issue or the proper setting, I can add a bit of documentation to the books on drupal.org?
