Event is shown as upcoming after the event has ended

[finaceclub]

Hi
I have the upcoming events plugin activated and use some custom queries where i use the line ‘eventDisplay’ => ‘upcoming’, to display upcoming events.
Now my last event (Dec 4, 12:15 – 13:45, local time) has passed but this event is still being shown as upcoming event (local time now: 15:50).
Any idea on how to fix this?
Thanks an best regards,
Toby

Hey Toby,

Sorry you’re having troubles here. You mention “the upcoming events plugin” in your post here – can you clarify exactly what you mean by this? If you can link to this plugin just so we know precisely what you mean, that would be very helpful.

As for your custom queries, can you post all of them, unedited or modified, into Gists at http://gist.github.com? Then, share links to these Gists so we can look at your code in detail. There could be something there at play here, and if not, it’s worth definitively ruling out.

Finally, for now: what timezone is your WordPress site set to? You can see this in Settings → General in your admin.

Thanks,
George

Hi George

Thank you for your answer. Sorry, I’m using the upcoming events widget where i have activated the option, that the widget is hidden if there are no upcoming events. It is just below the facebook button on the front page.

Here’s the link to the two custom queries: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/e597de4c55a971060d11#file-gistfile1-txt

My time zone is Zurich, Switzerland.

Best regards,

Hi George
The query works now (the day after). I guess there’s something wrong with getting the end of the event which is then set to the end of the day instead of the database entry.
Hope it helps.

Best regards,
Toby

Hey Toby,

In your comment here where you mention that “the query works now (the day after)”, do you mean that the last event that was posted is now correctly not showing up in your “upcoming” queries? But if you have another event that passes, does the query still take a day do update?

Just want to be certain I clearly understand what you mean. I’m curious, do you have any caching configuration on your web server or anything that you know of? Also, even though you’ve tried deactivating your plugins, can you list what all of those plugins are? And just to be clear, have you literally tried deactivating every other plugin? And if so, did you notice any difference with this issue?

Thanks for your patience!
George
