@Aakash – question… Have you considered adding a preview feature to the plugin so that it’s possible to see the announcement bar before it’s published?

[macromark]

Fantastic! Thanks and done 👍

Interesting. When I click the link above, I get this:

Secure Connection Failed

OK, great… I’ll give that a try and will report back. Thanks!

FWIW – I see the screen shots I posted above but not yours.

Here’s what I see
var schedule_from = Date.parse(this.props.schedule_from) || (now – 1);
var schedule_to = Date.parse(this.props.schedule_to) || (now + 1);

What would I change those to?

Sorry, I do not see a screen shot in your post. Tried FireFox, Chrome … no screen shot. I’ll open the script file and see if I can figure it out.

Hello Aakash,

I don’t understand your instructions. Are you saying I should add + 'T00:00:00' to the stylesheet? If so, how? What syntax?

thanks, Mark

Aakash,

Per my first post, the scheduled duration appears to be honoring UTC instead of my local time zone. As a result, the banner that was scheduled to begin displaying on 2/3/2021 actually started displaying on 2/2/2021… five hours before it was supposed to. I don’t know if this is related the publish time… taking a guess it is because that is 5 hours ahead of me.

If your plugin is designed to honor my local time, that doesn’t appear to be happening. I could implement a workaround for this if I had the option to choose starting and ending times for the schedule but without that option I have to rely on the date matching my local date.

I’ll get back to you on this.

OK, thanks

Hello? Anyone there?

[macromark]

The PHP installation for our WordPress site is set to UTC (universal time). We’ve tried changing that (thinking that might be the issue) but have been unsuccessful in making the change for some reason. Is your plugin looking at the PHP timezone?

This is what the timestamp looks like in the list

This is what the timestamp says when you edit the bar
