Turn On/OFF Different buttons M-F during Business Hours vs Nights/Weekends

    Hi Dave,

    This plugin looks like exactly what I need! Two questions:

    1 – How do I know what time zone is being used?

    2 – I need to turn something ON during business days/hours and OFF outside business/days hours and then turn something else ON outside business hours and OFF during business hours. Essentially, two different buttons if it is during or outside these hours – say M-F 8-5, M-F 5-8, and Sat/Sun. It appears your Repeating Usage- 9-5 example achieves this. However, when I put the example code around my buttons, do I set the exact same time for one to ON as the other to be OFF, down to the second? When I try this, BOTH buttons appear at the same time. I tried offsetting it by one second but still both buttons are visible. Any guidance?

    Thanks so much!

    Hi Pamela,

    1 – The plugin uses your site’s time settings (in Settings > General)
    2 – Yes, you’d set one to turn off when the other one turns on. There must be something wrong with your logic. If you want me to take a look, put your shortcodes in a gist and send it my way.

    Thanks, Dave. I thought I had it working but, alas, I didn’t. Two questions:

    1 – With your plugin, iIs there any issue with using caching or it that okay since you’re using server time?

    2- Here is my logic – please let me know what I’m doing incorrectly!

    Thank you!
