Event icon shows wrong date (yesterday)

[golfgt]

Hey there,

I had the problem that the calendar icon in the list view of a todays event was showing yesterdays day and date (e.g. Sunday 25. instead of Monday 26.).

I had to remove a line in the widgets.php of the events-calendar-pro extension and modify the date.php of the the-events-calendar extension to get it working correctly:

date.php:

	/**
	 * Returns formatted date for the official end of the day according to the Multi-day cutoff time option
	 *
	 * @category Events
	 * @param string $date   The date to find the end of the day, defaults to today
	 * @param string $format Allows date and time formating using standard php syntax (http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php)
	 *
	 * @return string
	 */
	function tribe_event_end_of_day( $date = null, $format = 'Y-m-d H:i:s' ) {
		$multiday_cutoff = explode( ':', tribe_get_option( 'multiDayCutoff', '00:00' ) );
		$hours_to_add    = $multiday_cutoff[0];
		$minutes_to_add  = $multiday_cutoff[1];

		if ( is_null( $date ) || empty( $date ) ) {
			return apply_filters( 'tribe_event_end_of_day', date( $format, strtotime( 'tomorrow  +' . $hours_to_add . ' hours ' . $minutes_to_add . ' minutes' ) - 1 ) );
		} else {
			if ($format == 'U') {
				return apply_filters( 'tribe_event_end_of_day', date( $format, strtotime( date( 'Y-m-d', $date) . ' +1 day ' . $hours_to_add . ' hours ' . $minutes_to_add . ' minutes' ) - 1));
			} else {
				return apply_filters( 'tribe_event_end_of_day', date( $format, strtotime( date( 'Y-m-d', strtotime( $date ) ) . ' +1 day ' . $hours_to_add . ' hours ' . $minutes_to_add . ' minutes' ) - 1));
			}
		}
	}

widget.php

/**
 * Returns the event date, or today's date if the event has started and is not over yet.
 *
 * @return int
 **/
function tribe_events_get_widget_event_post_date() {
	global $post, $wp_query;

	$startDate = strtotime( $post->EventStartDate );
	$endDate   = strtotime( $post->EventEndDate );

	$is_multiday = tribe_event_is_multiday( $post->ID );
	$is_all_day = tribe_event_is_all_day( $post->ID );

	$today     = current_time( 'timestamp' );
	$yesterday = $today - DAY_IN_SECONDS;

	// Gets Yesterday cutoff to check which date we pick
	$yesterday_end = ( (int) tribe_event_end_of_day( $yesterday, 'U' ) ) + 1;

	// Check if the yesterday cutoff will get the start date of the event
	if ( $yesterday_end >= $startDate && ! $is_multiday && ! $is_all_day ) {
		$postDate = $yesterday;
	// If the event starts way in the past or ends way in the future, let's show today's date
	} elseif ( $today > $startDate && $today < $endDate ) {
		$postDate = $today;
	} else {
		$postDate = $startDate;
	}

	/* If the user clicked in a particular day, let's show that day as the event date, even if the event spans a few days */
	if ( defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) && DOING_AJAX && isset( $_POST['action'] ) && $_POST['action'] == 'tribe-mini-cal-day' ) {
		$postDate = strtotime( $_POST['eventDate'] );
	}

	return apply_filters( 'tribe_events_get_widget_event_post_date', $postDate );
}

Maybe you can fix that in a future version?

Hi,

I apologize I missed something in QA and we introduced a bug here.

I see you already fixed it, but here is my fix as well:

You can replace the contents of this file:

plugins/events-calendar-pro/src/functions/template-tags/widgets.php

With the coding here:

https://gist.githubusercontent.com/jesseeproductions/1bf79bcf1bc3de55ccee/raw/fe1b82fbedd58c55a95bcf9704cfb82e4266bdd9/widget.php

That will fix the issue until we can release a patch.

We are working on that patch and at worse it will be out with 4.0.

Thanks

Thanks for your version of a fix! Works fine for me!

You’re Welcome.

I am going to close this ticket to new replies, but the issue is still open and we will update this ticket once we release a fix.

If you have any new questions or issues please create a new ticket and reference this one.

Thanks
