Recurring Events TIMES Error

[Joel]

Hello!
I started a thread a couple weeks ago about this issue and was taken away from dealing with it for a while and then was informed to begin a new thread, because the other one was closed.
Here is the original thread – https://tri.be/support/forums/topic/recurring-events-times-error/#post-367171 – and I have recently tried testing for conflicts…

Upon reverting to the 2012 theme and deactivating all plugins the problem ceased and then when I reverted back to my current theme the problem happened again. Since I have already tried deactivating each plugin one by one and nothing changed, it seems that it is a theme issue.

Other than getting a new theme (which I am considering) is there any way to trouble shoot this. I am not familiar with code, so i’m not quite sure where to go from here.

Thank-you so much for the help! It is very much appreciated!

I should also stated that I found a way to trick it into working by create the recurring event in the 2012 theme and then reverting to my original one. It doesn’t work when I create the recurring event from my current theme.

I’m sorry you’re facing difficulties.

Just to confirm, is this the theme you are using? Would you be able to provide a copy (by uploading it to Dropbox or even your WP site and sharing the link via private reply)?

I can’t guarantee anything, but we could probably take a quick look and see if anything obvious jumps out – do note though there might be a longer delay than normal as we don’t ordinarily do this step 🙂

Thanks!

And yes, that is my theme.

Thanks for sharing!

So your theme modifies the default timezone setting and that is resulting in this problem – the code in question lives in _framework/initial-load.php (the getTimezoneByOffset() function).

I’m not honestly sure why that is required since WordPress itself ordinarily takes care of managing date/time settings – but could you enquire with the theme author and perhaps ask if there is a way to cleanly turn this feature off?

Thanks!

Thank-you for looking at it. I have sent a support ticket to the author of the theme, but he most likely won’t get back to until after the weekend. It may take a little bit, but I will let you know what he tells me when he gets back to me.

Thanks again for taking the time to help me with this!

Happy to help 🙂

Let’s leave this topic open in that case and hopefully there is some good news “in the mail”.
