Just prior to launch I used the iCal Importer to do a final import of events from our Google Calendars.<\/p>\n<p>During early usage, I experienced duplicate events being imported, but that was corrected with one of the four updates that were released between Aug 3 and Sept 5. I did one final import just prior to launch (with what&#8217;s now the latest version). I thought it went off without a hitch, however, it appears that the event times are off by an 1-hour. Older imported events appear to be correct, so I have to conclude that the issue cropped up during the last release. I have to also assume that a high percentage of events are affected.<\/p>\n<p>So, now I&#8217;ve just updated to the latest version of everything and have followed the directions to migrate iCal Importer settings and remove it\u2014to make way for the new Event Aggregator.<\/p>\n<p>During the first test on the staging environment it imported 382 events and only 3 of them were deemed as pre-existing. The remaining 379 events are now duplicates. Additionally, all duplicated events are off by the same 1-hour despite both Google Calendar and WordPress being set to UTC-5.<\/p>\n<p>So, it would appear that the previous duplication issue has returned and a new timezones issue has cropped up.<\/p>\n<p>It was just brought to my attention so I haven&#8217;t yet determined exactly how many events are affected. At the moment, it would appear that most every event after this month may be off by 1-hour (ie. 1 pm vs noon). I really need to get all the event times corrected. I&#8217;d do an import to correct them if I could, but doing so appears to just compound the problems.<\/p>\n<p>I deactivated all plugins and switched to a default WP theme while troubleshooting other issues, but I haven&#8217;t done so in order to test this one in particular. However, based on the number of posts I see about others having similar issues\u2014I assume it wouldn&#8217;t be of great benefit to so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1179678","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Duplicate events and times off by 1-hour -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/duplicate-events-and-times-off-by-1-hour\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Duplicate events and times off by 1-hour -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"I just launched our site a couple weeks ago.
