Bug with dates/times

Hi there,

Thanks again for a great plugin.

I’m having trouble with times saving/updating correctly in Participants Database however. Times elsewhere throughout WordPress and other plugins are still working fine. I’ve closely read your post about Date Shifting, however I think I’ve discovered a bug.

I seem to get incorrect times no matter if using Melbourne as a timezone (as per advice in that post), or UTC+11 (which is the opposite of the advice, and also unwanted because it causes problems for other plugins and also doesn’t update us for daylight savings time, etc).

It also occurs regardless if Participants Database Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Sync PHP Timezone is set to YES or NO.

We are on PHP 8.0 with latest version of WordPress 5.9 and version 2.0 of Participants Database just released the other day (although we had the same problem with 1.9.7.8).

Here is a screen recording to show you the workflow, along with some notes and examples. Please check it: https://archive.org/download/2022-02-05-11-33-58/2022-02-05%2011-33-58.mp4

I think there’s a bug? If you watch the screen recording closely, you can see the dates/times varying widely between screens, but most importantly, unfortunately, they seem never match a local time.

Thanks,
T
