We are using the past() method to check if the end date of an event (MPFT_datepicker) has gone by.

We are in zone America/Vancouver – UTC-8 – and the function is returning true for anything up to 8 hours in the future.

How can we use this function and get the correct answer in our timezone?

thanks.

Yes, interesting question, after looking into it, it seems the past and future methods might be a little simplistic, and need to consider the timezone offset as well. I’ll look into it further to work out what the correct code should be, and let you know when a fix is available.

Hi – just wondering if you’d had a chance to address this – we continue to workaround using WP_Query but proper treatment of timezones in past() and future() would help a lot. Thanks,
