Schedule Content Not Working?

  • Installed the Granular Controls for Elementor a couple of days ago. I cannot get the Schedule Content to work. I very well may be doing something incorrectly. ??

    I am using the latest versions of Elementor Pro and using Asta Pro as my theme.

    Here is what I have been doing:
    1. Select the section I want to schedule
    2. Go to Schedule Content, enter the date and time I want it to start displaying, the date and time I want it to stop displaying

    Then click on Publish and it seems to instantly Publish it and display.

    If I Save as Draft, it never Publishes.

    fyi… When testing I am choosing times that are only minutes into the future. Not sure if there is a minimum time that must be allowed or not.

    Also, I am trying o schedule an Astra Pro Custom Layout section via their Hooks functionality. Again not sure if that is an issue/limitation with Granular Controls or not.

    Hoping to get this to work soon, it seems like a great and helpful feature. I have looked for documentation on this but couldn’t find any.

    The website in question is currently in maintenance mode. I can provide login credentials if required.

    Thanks!

  • We’ve also found trouble with the “Delay Content” feature not working any longer, too. It used to, but doesn’t now.

    I’m referring to this feature: https://d.pr/i/jZqqyi

    I hope this gets fixed, as it’s an AWESOME feature.

    Same thing here, scheduled content does not work!

    I managed to get it working — however there’s an issue with the javascript this plugin uses. despite being “mostly” functional, it’s completely broken on iOS devices.

    There’s been no update for this plugin in 9 months, so I doubt we’re going to see any further support by the original author.

    I’ll post back if I come up with anything.

    in the file:
    /var/www/html/mbc_hunterdontechsupport_com/wp-content/plugins/granular-controls-for-elementor/modules/scheduled-content/module.php

    Change line 121 and 122 to the following:

    var startDate = new Date(settings.start.replace(' ', 'T'));
var endDate = new Date(settings.end.replace(' ', 'T'));

    The iOS bug is due to the date string not being in a format specified to work with new Date on iOS. The only format in iOS’s ECMAScript specifications is a simplified version of ISO-8601. If we change the space to a T, it is in spec, and functions on iOS.

    sources:
    ECMAscript language specification
    Javascript Date Invalid on iOS
