Hi Cliff,
Awesome! I tested double escaping (j \\d\\e F) and, as you said, it is wrong in preview but work in production, so I will leave it like that while solution is delivered.

Not a problem giving detailed info. I just sent what I would like to receive. And if among tech support crew we don´t to take care of each other, who would do? 🙂

I will check again with single escaping once you deploy the fix in a future update.

Thanks a lot!

Hi,
I found where the problem is, but not the solution.

(By the way, in Spanish we say “22 of January”, not “January 22” so thats why we write “de” that in this case is translating that “of”)

Problem is that “\” character is not escaping the next letter, so in “Date without year” I set:
j \d\e F
in the preview (at right) it shows it as should be, but in visitors page view, it shows as if it wasn’t escaped:

then if I change format without escaping “d” and “e”
j de F
preview is exactly as shown visitors of events page can see it.

So the problem is that plugin is not escaping characters preceded by “\” as documentation says. The most strange thing is that, as you see in previous messages, it formats it properly for events dated in 2015 and 2017, but not for those in 2016.

Will we have an update for this? Any solution meanwhile (apart from changing to a format without escaped characters)?

Thanks a lot

Hi Cliff, and thanks for answering,
Some events are ok, but only those in 2015 and 2017. Present year (2016) events shows dates like:
25 25Europe/Madrid enero de 01:30 a 02:30
instado of
25-01-2016 de 01:30 a 02:30

As you see, for an event happening one day, instead of showing:
d-m-Y de [startTime] \a [endTime] -> 25-01-2016 de 01:30 a 02:30
it shows:
d d[TimeZone] m \d\e [startTime] \a [endTime] -> 25 25Europe/Madrid enero de 01:30 a 02:30

For an event happening from one day to another, instead of:
d \d\e m \a d \d\e m -> 15 de enero a 14 de febrero
it shows:
d d[TimeZone] m \a d d[TimeZone] m -> 15 15Europe/Madrid enero a 14 14Europe/Madrid febrero

It happens both for simple and recurrent events. Feel free to look over events published in http://www.maryasexora.com/eventos/

Here it is the date format settings screenshot:

And here you can see the events list transition from 2015 events to 2016 (future up, past down):

and from 2016 to 2017 (future up, past down):

You are right and may have something to do with date format, but can´t understand why 2015 and 2017 dates are ok and present year aren´t.

Thanks a lot for your help
