Possible issue with timezone

  • I noticed last night that my event list showing “todays events” did not show anything, even though there were three games left that night. When I looked into it further, I noticed that in the Event List (backend admin screen), it would show the games as “xx hours ago”, even though they were in the future.

    I checked that my timezone set correctly in wordpress (which also shows up on the sportspress config screen).

    Looking right now, it is 14:00 local time. The WordPress General Settings screen confirms this. But, when I look at the events list, it shows that a game scheduled for 19:00 today was 1 hour ago. That would mean your code thought the game was at 13:00. The difference is 6 hours, which happens to be the UTC offset for my timezone (UTC-6).

    So, it appears I may have a missed configuration somewhere besides the wordpress general setting, or that your time comparison code is not taking timezone into account in some instances.

    Thank you for your help!

    I noticed something that may be helpful. I have an Event Blocks widget on the main page that shows upcoming games. It correctly shows there is one more game today – May 16th 10:30pm (although it is 10:50pm right now, so maybe it’s off another direction?). But if I go to the page where I use the Event List shortcode and show today’s games, it actually shows the three games for tomorrow (May 17th) even though today is still the 16th.

    Hi!

    That’s really weird. To be honest I’m not sure what could be causing this. I’ll send this to our dev team so they can check

    Kind Regards,
