What plugin did you end up using? I’m having issues with this one and not entirely sold yet.

Found a fix!

Change line 121 and 122 to the following:

var startDate = new Date(settings.start.replace(‘ ‘, ‘T’));
var endDate = new Date(settings.end.replace(‘ ‘, ‘T’));
The iOS bug is due to the date string not being in a format specified to work with new Date on iOS. The only format in iOS’s ECMAScript specifications is a simplified version of ISO-8601. If we change the space to a T, it is in spec, and functions on iOS.

ECMAscript language specification
Javascript Date Invalid on iOS

note* if you’re still having issue on android, check to see if jquery is being properly loaded on the page, and that $ is functional as a caller for jquery. if not, replace the document.ready() to utilize jQuery(document).ready() instead of $(document).ready

Required setting when using GoDaddy economy hosting.
No time to troubleshoot the how/why though. Will post back if discovered.

I managed to get it working — however there’s an issue with the javascript this plugin uses. despite being “mostly” functional, it’s completely broken on iOS devices.

There’s been no update for this plugin in 9 months, so I doubt we’re going to see any further support by the original author.

I’ll post back if I come up with anything.

Scheduled content is broken on mobile, especially on Apple products.

I’m currently having to patch this up for a client, will post any updates here.
