    Hello again,

    I am displaying the following in some widgets. Nothing Terrible complicated.

    [events_list scope="today" country="US"]<p><strong>#_EVENTLINK </strong>will be distributed by <strong>#_LOCATIONLINK</strong></p>[/events_list]

    [events_list scope="tomorrow" country="US"]<p><strong>#_EVENTLINK </strong>will be distributed by <strong>#_LOCATIONLINK</strong></p>[/events_list]

    Basically, it looks like it is working however, it is 1/3/2016, for the today scope script, it is pulling events from 1/4/2016 an and for the tomorrow scope script it is pulling dates from 1/5/2016.

    How can i fix this, as it is a pretty serious issue.

    The site is live now. The dates are not as bad as they were when I was just doing previews however, some eventsare not showing up.

    I use the above code on the front page as footers @ http://www.findthosebeers.com/
    I also use the code on some sidebar widgets for http://www.findthosebeers.com/events/ and all its children.

    Another odd thing is that on each page, there seems to be different lists. Does it only show as many as it can based off the room it has? for example, on http://www.findthosebeers.com/events/tags/ the list is different than from http://www.findthosebeers.com/events/ on the same sidebar.

    Thanks,
    John

    Do those shortcuts work correctly if you test them in a normal page, with no other widgets or shortcodes being used on the same page?

    I tried them on a page and they seem to match up with both the front page footers and the sidebars. So everything seems good now.

    The dates also seem to be working. I had the site locked down pretty hard, construction plugins. etc. and I was even dissuading crawlers. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. I had a few others with access test it out to get some fresh eyes (and fresh access points) and they had the dates off by a day as well. So I am not sure if I inadvertently fixed it or not.

    Is there some sort of date tolerance overlap going on somewhere? Is that even possible?

    I think the problem is most likely to have been interference from another part of the page (something else looping through events / dates).

    Pretty sure security measures wouldn’t cause this kind of problem.
