Posts not showing after new year when used with the date attribute

  • Hi,

    we use the pip plugin to show pages categorized with “startseite” to show on our static start page. I use the following shortcode for that:
    [ic_add_posts category=’Startseite,startseite’ ignore_sticky_posts=’no’ date=’week’ template=’posts_loop_template_full_header.php’]

    This has worked for quite some time now, but it seems it fails after the new year. New posts that are created today do not show up on the page anymore. If I remove the date=’week’ attribute, they show up immediately. If I change ther creataion date back to last year, they show up as well.

    Regards

    Benny

    Hi @raskil – Thanks for reporting this and we’ll certainly check it out.

    I don’t know that I’ve ever used date='week' and I can see our documentation could definitely be improved here.

    I’ll have one of our other developers check me on this but I think that it’s going by the week number of the year. So, since Jan 1 is both in week 53 of 2020 and week 1 of 2021, it’s only looking at today, Jan 1.

    In the meantime, can you tell me what happens when you try:

    1. date='week-1' and
    2. date='today-7'

    If my theory is right, you might be able to temporarily work around this by using a different argument with your shortcode, at least for the first week. Maybe something like:

    [ic_add_posts from_date='25-12-2020']

    Let me know how it goes. We should be able to confirm this by early next week.

    Hi @sewmyheado,

    thanks for you quick reply. I’ve tried your suggestions. Using ‘week-1’ does not work. Using ‘today-7′ does not work. Using from_date=’25-12-2020’ does indeed show the post from today.
