Event hours don't seem to display correctly in my week view

[Puaka Matariki]

For events that run 10:00am to 5:00pm, they are displaying 12:00am to 11:00pm.
I realise this must be a problem with recurring events, but =not sure where the problem is.

Hey Martin,

Thanks for reaching out!

Also thanks for the screenshot, that is really helpful.

Based on that I see that you have set up a multi-day event from July 7 to 22, and you made that a recurring one.

My hunch is this is not really what you intended to do.

I guess that is an event running from 10 to 5 on one day. As a first I would recommend you to set the end date in the top row to July 7 as well. When you save that your event and the recurrences will be updated too.

Let me know if that gives you the expected result or if you are still having issues afterwards.

Cheers,
Andras

Hi Andras,

Thanks for that, and I am editing the multiple events to match your suggestion.
But I am finding that even single events are showing as finishing at 11pm or 12am, when they should be finishing at 4pm or 5pm. I have attached screen shots to show what I mean. I’m wondering whether our date format is a problem – dd/mm/yy. I notice it does not seem to be consistent throughout – some dates display fine in the dd/mm/yy format (as I’ve chosen in Settings), however in Event Edit, or in the Event Search on the Week View the format reverts to mm/dd/yy. Is there any way to achieve consistency? Or is the mm/dd/yy hard-coded into some of the (Events Calendar Pro) core?

Thanks, Martin

To follow up, I noticed that the heigh of the week event container was set to 100% in the CSS, which I have adjusted to ‘auto’ (or could be ‘initial’) and you can see the change in the attached screenshot. But the hours still are not right. This calendar view is now live so I would really like to get it dsiplaying correctly : )
Thanks, Martin

P.S.
Also, the second attached screenshot shows a random snippet I found in events-calendar-pro > src > resources > js > tribe-events-week.js that seems to be testing for date format. Is there a date format definition in the core different to the WP core setting? And is this different again in widget-calendar.js?

Hi,

Thanks for all the extra info and screenshots.

I’m wondering whether our date format is a problem – dd/mm/yy.

It should not be. There is a setting for the date format that are shown on the website, and there is a separate setting for the date format in the datepickers. You can find all this under Events > Settings > Display tab and looks like this: https://cloudup.com/cwagoTQP4W9

The datepicker format is the last, at the bottom of the screenshot.

As for the week view, I suspect some css change is involved.

Could you switch to a default theme like twentysixteen or twentyseventeen and see if you are still experiencing the misalignment issues?

Thanks and cheers,
Andras
