Events Calendar shows tomorrow as today

    I have two sites running the Events Calendar. I noticed at about 8:00 PM this evening (Sept. 8) that the Events Calendar on one site (https://gbcministries.com) showed the date as September 9. I checked my WordPress settings (the time zone was correctly set for Detroit; a change to UTC -4 did not help) and my Events Calendar settings (the day ends at 12:00 AM). Nothing helped. The other site (https://aclowderofcats.com) also showed the wrong date: tomorrow’s. Since that is the less crucial site, I followed the directions for checking for a theme or plugin conflict: changed the theme to Twenty Thirteen, disabled all the plugins except the Events Calendar, and cleared my browser cache. It made no difference. The date in the month view of the Events Calendar still shows as tomorrow.

    Please help! Judging by the forum on the Events Calendar website, there are others who are experiencing this problem.

  • Hey @sweetmewsic,

    I’m really sorry that you’re having trouble with this on your site –?you’re right that some other users have indeed reported this behavior, and we’ve since found a bug that came about in version 3.11. We’re working hard on a fix for this bug!

    Until the official release of this fix, you should be able to fix the bug on your own by making two small file edits in both Events Calendar Pro and The Events Calendar core plugin itself.

    The files in question are, for Events Calendar Pro, on line 359:

    events-calendar-pro/src/Tribe/Templates/Week.php

    And in The Events Calendar core, on line 852:

    the-events-calendar/src/Tribe/Template/Month.php

    At these locations you should see some code that looks like this:

    strtotime( 'today' );

    To fix the bug, replace that with WordPress’s current_time() function like this:

    strtotime( current_time( 'Y-m-d' ) );

    That should do the trick. I’m really sorry that editing core code is required to fix this at present –?if you’d rather not edit core code, we are hoping to publish an official release with this fix included as soon as tomorrow or, more likely, early next week some time.

    Thank you!
    George
