    I love your product, I think it’s easy to use and it looks good. But, just now I went to my site to look at upcoming events, and the event I wanted to see is not there. The event doesn’t occur for another 2 hours, but it’s already off the upcoming list.
    My WordPress is set to use my current time zone, so that shouldn’t be a problem.
    Also, I would like it if it left upcoming events on for the whole day, since there’s no duration or end time on events.

    I think this could be an issue with different time zones.
    I will have a look at it.

    Michael,
    I think you can change db.php, around line 70, you need to alter the upcoming section to use the WordPress current_time function, instead of the system date. I don’t know if the syntax is correct, but I think this is the right spot.

    My host uses GMT, but my word press is set to pacific time, that’s a significant difference.

    else { // upcoming
    // get only events in the future
    // $range_start = date( ‘Y-m-d’ );
    $range_start = date( ‘Y-m-d’, current_time( ‘mysql’ ));
    $range_end = ‘9999-12-31’;

    }

    Thanks for your help. I will test it and include it in the next version.

    The correct line is:
    $range_start = date('Y-m-d', current_time('timestamp'));

    I have already included it in the development version, so the fix is included in the next version.

    Thanks for your help.

    Thank you Michael

    Hi, after updating db.php with the above I still see all events listed under upcoming. So also events for which the start date is already in the past now.
    I would expect under upcoming to see the events with a start date/time in the future only.
    Any idea what could be the issue and how to fix this?
    Tx!!

    Hi, I just noticed one thing! After midnight the events disappeared correctly form the upcoming event list. So when date changes it works and the problem seems to be in the current_time(‘timestamp’). Any idea?
    Tx!
