    Hi guys,

    We’ve encountered a strange bug on one of our sites using your plugin.

    With WordPress timezone set to Zurich, which is now in Summer Time and will switch on the 26th of october to Winter Time, recurring events set to appear every Monday start, from the 26th of October, to be saved in the DB to the Sunday instead.

    They stay on Sunday until the Sunday 29th of March, when we switch back to Summer Time. On the 29th, there’s no event saved, but there is one on the 30th. After that date, every events are set on Monday as desired, until the date of the next switch.

    If we set the timezone of the site back to UCT+2, the problem doesn’t appear, it’s how the site is configured at the moment, it would however be fine to fix this.

    Version of the plugin is the last one (3.8)

  • Hi,

    If you’re using version 3.8 you should upgrade to the latest version.

    Hi Gilles, Hi caimin_nwl,

    I am currently experiencing the same issue, I think. We are based in France, currently living under Summer Time (UTC+2), and the Winter Time (UTC+1) will arrive on Sunday 26 October at 03:00.

    Events Manager v5.5.3.1 is correctly configured (France is the default country for events) and all event locations are correctly configured (located in FR).

    Here is the issue:

    • An event created in September and scheduled for Thursday 2 October at 18:30 is currently showing its correct time (18:30), both on the website and in RSS and iCal feeds.
    • An event created in October and scheduled for Monday 3 November at 17:30 is currently showing a correct time (17:30) on the website but a wrong time (16:30 as if UTC+1) in RSS and iCal feeds.

    See the RSS feed on https://repaircafemarseille.fr/ateliers/feed/ for a demonstration. It is as if the Events Manager was considering that the time settings should be made under the current Summer/Winter Time reference, and not as an absolute value. Very strange.

    Does anyone also experience this? Thanks in advance for your insights!

    Best regards,

    David.
