Hey, I missed the email notification for your reply. Thank you for looking into it.

We are in fact only a single location. We just had two different shows that happen at different times of the day, not unlike a small single room movie theatre that has two films playing at different times.

This is still something we’re trying to figure out. I’m currently trying to find a way to display two separate columns of time slots per day. One for each show. This will be the clearest for users but possibly complicated to implement without loosing the benefits of We’re Open. I’m fighting to keep it since it’s been so incredibly helpful.

We could probably parse and display the entries according to our needs if each of the max. three daily time entries had a unique identifier (E.G.: Su1, Su2, Su3, Mo1, Mo2, Mo3, Tu1, Tu2, Tu3, We1, We2, We3, Th1, Th2, Th3, Fr1, Fr2, Fr3, Sa1, Sa2, Sa3 )

I’m not a web developer and the above might be a gross over simplification.

We would happily pay for the development if you see it as a useful feature to have in the plugin. You’re already incredibly generous to make this freely available and support it the way you have.

Just sent you a connection request on LinkedIn to share our website since I couldn’t find a way to PM you on here.

Amazing, thank you ??

Well.. from what I can tell, this is 100% human error on my part. Sorry to bother you with this!

My disoriented holiday brain was interpreting things incorrectly.
I’m happy to report that everything is working exactly as designed!

I just had to remember how I designed it! ??

If you have a clever way for me to display a list of only special hours for an upcoming fixed period, this seems to be the only thing I’m doing in clunky way.
Something like [special hours=’next two weeks only’] ?

This is working well enough if I remember to update the start date occasionally:
[open ul class=”dark closed-italic hours-uppercase day-uppercase” regular=”false” day_format=”short_date_short_month” time_format=”12_colon_gap_trim” start=”2022/01/01″ end=”2022/06/31″]

Thank you for responding and happy holiday!

I’ve managed to resolve a couple of the issues:

-Structured Data is now published. It wasn’t displayed because someone unchecked the “Enable structured data” button in We’re Open..

-Past ‘special hours’ were still being displayed because I created the object with a fixed date range starting on Dec 22nd.

The remaining major challene is that any change of values at all in We’re Open appears to save, but is not reflected on the live website or in the structured data.

Thanks for those details. I’ll continue to experiment with it, but this overall looks like its going to be a major upgrade for us.

Manually updating our special hours across platforms has been such a headache this past year.

Also, you were right that I wasn’t loading the CSS. Forgot to check the box in the We’re Open settings.

Theres one remaining challenge that very much falls outside the scope of your plugins functionality. Not at all expecting it but if you’re able to nudge me in the right direction it would be a huge help.

I’m trying to replicate our previous visual style of highlighting the background of the current day. This has turned out to be more challenging than expected because I need to look up classes instead of ID’s, and cant seem to specify a wildcard like (‘*today*’)

You seemed to indicate theres already a class for calling ‘present day’ but I haven’t figure out how to use this.

The screenshot shows the styling I’m trying to replicate on the right

Good news! Your approach is working flawlessly. Im just a little new to all this ??

We are using WPML to manage multi-lingual versions of pages. This plug-in allows for the pages language to be defined as a global variable.

I can confirm that by default, all automatic translation based on the detected language of the by Opening Hours is working.

This includes:
Days: Monday = Lundi
Shortened days: Mon = Lun
Months: December = Décembre
Shortened months: Dec = Déc

The only text replacement that was required on our french page so far is:
closed=”fermé”
open=”ouvert”

[open ul] is all it took to fix the styling! Using this resulted in the “We’re Open” section to be a visually verbatim copy of the previous code. Thank you!

We have a bilingual french/english website. The ‘days’ modification you see is me testing how I will manage the two different pages.

Is there currently a way to translate ‘months’ and ‘short_months’? I tried the following but the logic doesn’t seem to exist yet.

months=”Janvier,Février,Mars,Avril,Mai,Juin,Juillet,Ao?t,Septembre,Octobre,Novembre,Décembre”
short_month=”janv.,févr.,mars,avril,mai,juin,juil.,ao?t,sept.,oct.,nov.,déc.”

The short_months are based on recommended norms found here:
