Date and year does not work properly after update

    Hello,

    I am using timeline express(v 1.3.5) with Historical Dates Addon(v 1.1) and Single Column Add-On(1.0.4), everything ws working fine before, however after updating to current version disabled dates and years entirely. You can check this page to see the issue – https://www.rozsvittesvesrdce.cz/pronasledovani/. Years are set accordingly, but the plugin has set year 1970 for every announcement. Dates have error – Error processing the date format instead of set date.

    I have just tried reupdating the dates as well as years. I am using a function to show year instead of icon and also a function to print date format as – 

    function custom_te_date_format( $date_format ) {
   $date_format = "M d, Y"; // will print the date as Apr 22, 2016
   return $date_format;
}
add_filter( 'timeline-express-custom-date-format' , 'custom_te_date_format' , 10 );
define( 'TIMELINE_EXPRESS_YEAR_ICONS', true );

    I will just underline – that everything was working fine before updating to wp 4.7. and before updating plugins to current versions. Unfortunately i am currently unsure what was the working setup in case someone wants to know the actual versions of the working plugins. I also believe that server setup was not changed or any other technical parameters.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi @svetozars,

    We will take a look. There has not been any reports of similar issues. we’ll have to see if we can replicate the issue.

    Have you tried updating the dates of the announcements? If you alter the date does the date change in the front end of the site?

    Can you share a few dstes that you are having issues with?

    Thanks

    Hello,

    thank you for your answer. I have been testing several attempts to fix the issue myself. I have tried deactivating the whole base plugin with all the addons. I have tried adding a new announcement, i have tried updating announcements with different dates, however the outcome was always the same. The issue with “Error processing the date format” under the announcement title on front end dissapears when i disable historical dates addon, unfortunately it will show this date instead of the real one – 08/22/1970 on every announcement.

    Also this is the only actual instance of the issue that i can reproduce. I can create a dev access for you to inspect the issue further, however only via direct message or email.

    thank you very much in advance,
    Svetozar.

    Hi @svetozars,

    What theme are you using. Do you have any of our other add-ons installed alongside the base Timeline Express plugin?

    What is the date format you are attempting to store in the database? (Settings > General > Date Format).

    If you want, please feel free to email us via the contact form on our site and we can discuss in private if you are not comfortable sharing some information here:

    I’d like to see if we can get this issue squared away for you.

    Thanks so much!
