    If I go to the Edit screen for a recurring event that was created pre-4.4,
    the Edit screen does not populate the Recurrence rules correctly. I can,
    however, update each rule within the event manually, and it will save with
    the dates and times that I expect. The updated rules propagate as expected
    and show correctly if I open the Edit screen again.

    If I start a new post-4.4 event with new rules, it will also save with the
    dates and times that I expect.

    The problem is that I do not want to update each and every rule manually
    for pre-4.4 events. Does that make more sense?

    1. What version of The Events Calendar and Events Calendar Pro did you upgrade from? Were you using version 3.11 of Events Calendar Pro, for example, then updated straight to 4.4?

    I’m not sure, but it’s been a while since we’ve updated. How can I check to be sure?

    2. If you create a NEW test event with the rules you want to happen—”30PM on some dates, 1:00PM, 12:00PM, etc, on others”—do these rules get generated correctly? Are there any issues here, or are there only issues with pre-existing events that you set up before you updated The Events Calendar and Events Calendar Pro to 4.4?

    To be clear, the data in the calendar view currently shows up fine – it is the Edit screen that cannot interpret the data, resulting in all fields reverting to “same time” as the the first event in the series. Generating a new event with new rules works fine. Updating the pre-existing event with rules is also fine, but obviously I do not want to have to manually update every single pre-existing event again.

    Let me know if you need more information!

    I have 1202 events that need updating… do you have a recommendation on how to best proceed without manually updating each one?

    Hi!

    My Events Settings follow:
    ‘Use the sitewide timezone everywhere’
    ‘Show Timezone’ = Y

    My General Settings:
    ‘Timezone’ = UTC

    To restate my problem: I’m trying to change the General Timezone to ‘New York’, but when I save the settings, the event that was previously showing as 9AM UTC now shows as 4AM EST. I would like it to show 9AM EST instead. Is it possible to set the Timezone to ‘New York’ while maintaining the time without recreating all the events?

    Unfortunately, I’ve tried that to no avail. Changing the time zone on WP now changes the times of all the events. Any other suggestions?

    For now I’ve switched it back to UTC+0 to ensure it shows properly for users over the holidays.

    Perfect, this fixed the problem. Thanks!
