    Hi Jeremy!
    Had to let go my (very) old OTD plugin and using yours now.
    Version 1.5.5 still (again? saw that you resolved this one already wit some earlier version) delays the stuff so same things showing day after. At some point it snaps to the actual date but very late on the day.
    (clearing the cahe didn´t help)
    Otherwise a neat plugin and I really like the OTD function.
    Running a large site since 2005 and there´s lots of stuff I myself manage to forget about:))

    Best,
    Soile

    Hi!

    I did indeed adjust things back in 1.5.2. I haven’t made any changes to that logic since, and as far as I can tell it still works well on my own personal site. 2 things come to mind:

    • My settings may be different from yours. Could you let me what settings you picked for the widget’s display?
    • You may be using a caching plugin or caching service that impacts the way transients (one way to store information in WordPress) are handled on your site. When someone visits your site and lands on page where the widget is visible, my plugin asks the site for that site’s data. If it’s not readily accessible (i.e. that person is the first to visit the site on that day), then the plugin fetches the list of posts and marks that data as valid until the end of the day (in practice, mark it as valid for how many seconds are left until midnight). Then, when the next person visits your site, the data is readily available, at least until midnight. At that point the data is marked as expired, and the next person gets a fresh data set. That logic usually works well, but some caching plugins or solutions play a bit with how long data is stored before it’s marked as expired ; that may be what’s happening here. If you do use a caching plugin, it may be worth trying to deactivate it for a couple of days to see if that changes anything.
