Offset

I think there are some issues with offset right now so we are looking into it. I will update you when we know for sure.

Thanks for using our plugin.

Yes, I need to be able to display events for the next 8 days (church services for the next week, including NEXT sunday, when today is a sunday.), and previously used an offset to do this, so I’m a bit stuck until I can do this.

I’m also having some problems with the styling, but I expect I can sort that out with some judicious CSS.

As several people explained in different threads, the option to apply an offset to an event is missing in versions 2.0.++.

What it should do in my case is show tommorrow’s events let’s say 8 hours early.
Example: I have a calender-list showing only 1 event (the daily menu of our cafeteria) as the cafeteria closes at 2pm, today’s menu is no longer interesting after that, but people may want to see what is on the menu tomorrow, so I want to show tomorrow’s menu starting from e.g. 3pm today. That is what I could do with the offset in the old plugin.

The return of offsets get my vote too. Also from ‘NOW’, so I don’t display today’s events that have been and gone.

Thank you for bringing this up. We are aware that many of you want the offsets back so we are working to do what we can with that.

Thank you for your patience, and I will be sure to update everyone when this is fixed.

What you seem to have done in 2.0.4 is replacing “Retrieve Events From” with “Start Date Offset” in number of days.

This does not really help in my case, as I need an offset of a few hours and not days.

as I explained here:

“What it should do in my case is show tommorrow’s events let’s say 8 hours early.

Ok I understand what you are saying now. I think there may be a discussion about this on the roadmap and if not then you can definitely chime in there so we can get it back on the radar.

I am going to mark this as resolved for now since there is not much I can do about “fixing” it at this point. But please let your voice be heard on the roadmap so that we can get this all worked out.

Thanks!
