Mini calendar does not display link if event is on March 31st 2019

    Though the event exists and displays in event listings, if the event is on March 31st 2019 a link to the event will not be shown on the mini calendar. I’ve tested this with multiple events. Changing the date of the event to the previous or next day, and the link will show up on the mini-calendar. I suspect this has to do with the fact that that date on the minicalendar falls in the very last position, but I’m not sure. Here is a screenshot to help clarify:

  • Hello,

    Could We perhaps know what PHP Version are you using? Can you try and changing it to PHP 7.1? After changing them please do try and Reset timezones. Events > Settings > Admin Tools > Reset Timezones

    I created a new multidev environment and upgraded my PHP version to 7.1, then finalized the timezone upgrade and reset the timezones. I’ve cleared cache on the server and the problem still persists:

    If I change the event to the 30th or 29th the link shows up fine, so it seems like it’s related to that specific date on the mini calendar.

    Any update on this? As a follow-up, I’ve installed the plugin locally with no other plugins and found the same behavior. I’m pretty sure this is an Events Manager plugin bug. This bug always occurs when there is an event in the last day position (lower right corner) of the mini-calendar. You can see the same bug in the following screenshot on May 5 2019:

    Hello,

    I will be testing this on my Test Server and I will get back on the results.

    I tried this on our test server and seems working fine. just to confirm, is this using spanning events or recurring events?

    @angelo_nwl This is not a spanning or recurring event, it is a standard event of any length of time. Can you show me any example of the mini calendar displaying a link in the bottom right hand corner? May 5th is another example of this test case. I’ve tested on multiple months locally, looked at examples and other implementations and have yet to find this test case.

    Could it be the way it’s being implemented? I’m using the following EM_Calendar command;

    echo EM_Calendar::output(array('full'=>0, 'long_events'=>1));

    If you look here, you can see that the event exists but does not display in the mini-calendar. If I change the start date to the next or previous day it works.

    Thanks for your help with this.

    In looking at this further, the issue is somehow related to the Timezone settings. The timezone setting for that event was set correctly to Los Angeles time, but setting the timezone to UTC made the mini calendar display the link.

    Yes…I’ve determined the issue was timezone related. The blog timezone was set to UTC but the events manager timezone was set to Los Angeles. I’m not sure why this only affected a small subset of events, but I think we can close this issue now.

    Thanks for sticking with me!
