 * Hello,
 * thank you for a great plugin. Previously I was using All-In-One Time.ly calender,
   but that was too complex.
 * I was using your old version which worked great. The new version is also great,
   but I can not find how to define offset.
 * I am using it to display birthdays of our players. I would like to show/retrieve
   only today events. Previously I have used today and offset of 6 hours.
 * Can you help?
 * Thank you
    Grega

 * I think there are some issues with offset right now so we are looking into it.
   I will update you when we know for sure.
 * Thanks for using our plugin.

 * Yes, I need to be able to display events for the next 8 days (church services
   for the next week, including NEXT sunday, when today is a sunday.), and previously
   used an offset to do this, so I’m a bit stuck until I can do this.
 * I’m also having some problems with the styling, but I expect I can sort that 
   out with some judicious CSS.

 * As several people explained in different threads, the option to apply an offset
   to an event is missing in versions 2.0.++.
 * What it should do in my case is show tommorrow’s events let’s say 8 hours early.
   
   Example: I have a calender-list showing only 1 event (the daily menu of our cafeteria)
   as the cafeteria closes at 2pm, today’s menu is no longer interesting after that,
   but people may want to see what is on the menu tomorrow, so I want to show tomorrow’s
   menu starting from e.g. 3pm today. That is what I could do with the offset in
   the old plugin.

 * The return of offsets get my vote too. Also from ‘NOW’, so I don’t display today’s
   events that have been and gone.

 * Thank you for bringing this up. We are aware that many of you want the offsets
   back so we are working to do what we can with that.
 * Thank you for your patience, and I will be sure to update everyone when this 
   is fixed.

 * What you seem to have done in 2.0.4 is replacing “Retrieve Events From” with “
   Start Date Offset” in number of days.
 * This does not really help in my case, as I need an offset of a few hours and 
   not days.
 * as I explained here:
 * “What it should do in my case is show tommorrow’s events let’s say 8 hours early.
   
   Example: I have a calender-list showing only 1 event (the daily menu of our cafeteria)
   as the cafeteria closes at 2pm, today’s menu is no longer interesting after that,

 * Ok I understand what you are saying now. I think there may be a discussion about
   this on the roadmap and if not then you can definitely chime in there so we can
   get it back on the radar.

 * I am going to mark this as resolved for now since there is not much I can do 
   about “fixing” it at this point. But please let your voice be heard on the roadmap
   so that we can get this all worked out.
 * Thanks!
