Completed items "completed date" is incorrect?

    Hi there,

    Firstly I think you’ve done a great job with the plugin and I’m looking forward to what OptimaList brings to the table. One thing I noticed was the completed items time stamp seems to be out by 1 day, for example today where I am in Australia is 22nd August and I have Melbourne selected in WP > Settings > General. However when I check an item off now as completed it says 21st August – I was just wondering where the plugin gets the date from when populating this?

    Thank you in advance!

    It’s just using PHP’s date function (server time) but I see that WordPress has a function that uses local time and since WP version 3.9 can be used for any PHP time format so that can be used instead.

    In file /includes/cleverness-to-do-list-library.php, line #265 says:
    update_post_meta( $id, '_completed', date( 'Y-m-d' ) );

    could try changing it to:
    update_post_meta( $id, '_completed', current_time( 'Y-m-d' ) );

    No problems at all, thanks! I decided just to change the timezone on my server which has done the trick. Thanks again! ??
