PHP Notice when trying to save a event – Timezone related

[Sam]

Hi

I am using Event Calendar Pro + Community Event Calendar and whenever I created an event both in admin panel and from the public facing form. It throws an exception as follows:

I did some preliminary investigation on this and it turned out to be that

in events-calendar-pro-src/Tribe/Recurrence/Exclusion.php line 76

1. $minutes_in_seconds = floatval( empty( $matches[3] ) ? 0 : $matches[3] ) * 60;
Should be
$minutes_in_seconds = floatval( empty( $matches[3] ) ? 0 : $matches[3] ) * 3600;

2. Even after having the correct $minutes_in_seconds. For our timezone “Australia/Adelaide” (UTC+9.5)
date_default_timezone_set still returns false. People have a solution by iterating timezone_abbreviations_list() ref. and do the manual comparison.

Since this is in the Core code, would you please check and let me know when it is fixed.

Hi Sam!

Thanks for reaching out to us and for letting us know about that. 🙂

I could not reproduce the php notice but it may be for specific system settings. Could you please share with us your sys info by following this guide > https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/sharing-sys-info/

This will provide us with the info to test on our side.

In the meantime, I will reach the dev team to have a look at this and then let you know about it.

Thanks,
Victor
