User sees an incorrect version of the calender

Hi

A very strange one this.

I have set a number of calender events with corresponding forums. All users see the correct dates - except one, who sees the events a listed one day in advance to everyone else. Of course, this is the same user who had problems registering! (Fate, eh?!?)

What everyone sees:

What he sees:

user Mick G.

Any ideas why? I have checked the global and user date settings, all fine.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks,
Mark

what about the date setting in his profile

Hi, Thanks for your reply.

All seems OK. Here are a couple of grabs:





Any thoughts?

Best,
Mark

not sure if this would effect it or not because iv never used this feature but have him check his pc time and date and make sure its correct

He has checked and assures me it's set correctly. Hmm.

Ask the member to clear his browser's cache and history.

SL - done, but no change. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I just can't get my head round it!

This has now spread to all members. Nothing has been altered by me. All events are now listed as happening one day in advance to their actual entered (scheduled) date)

Could this be malicious/an attack of some kind?

Sorry for paranoia/naivety.

Best,
Mark

Try this:  Administration Panel - General - Forum - Configuration
Resyn the whole forum. (at the bottom)

SL - no change.

Thanks for your suggestion.

More info: User birthdays have not moved, only events that have been added to the calender 'manually'.

If that makes sense?

Did you create the events on the calendar or from a topic?

Created on the calender itself.  A topic link then appeared in the forum called 'Calender events'. Some of these were then moved to more suitable forums (topic specific).

Everything was fine for a few days, then one user reported the error. I logged in as several other users and everything was still normal for them, and today I had more emails form other users asking why the calender is now wrong!

Just very odd this started with one user (Mick G), and has now spread to all users.

Check the topics that were created to see if the settings are correct.

The events dates (in their title headings) in the ones I moved are correct, but are all one day ahead of where they should be on the calender.




All other calender events (except birthdays) are also one day ahead.

Could this be a 'hack' of some sort?

Just a thought I think this could be a bug when moving a post to some other forum.

I will run a test on my test site and see if it is doing the same. if it is then I will report it to the tech team.

EDIT: I have run a test on my forum and have found that I cannot recreate the bug

can you try and make a new event and see if that then shows the problem when moved to a new part of the forum.

Many thanks Ape, have done this:



'Ides of March' has been created and moved.



Just as a further detail, the events for Committee Meetings 1&2 both moved from their Sunday slots to the proceeding Saturdays on the Calender, despite not being moved out of the forum topic 'calender events'. The same goes for all of the other topics in the forum "calender events".

I hope this helps - in the meantime, let's see what happens to Ides of March...

What i will do is report this as a bug and ask @Buttercup to ask if this is a problem as i have done a test and found the problem is not showing on my forum.

I am thinking it was down to when we did a Timezone update some time back it may have messed the old files up a little but i can not be 100% sure on this thats why i will ask for other help from the tech staff.

Me or Buttercup will get back to you as soon as we can.

Hello

Could you please send me the profile link of your member ? Do you know if your member has the same timezone as your forum?

I will investigate

Thanks

Hi Buttercup

Yup, all timezones are in sync.

It is now all members who see incorrect dates.

I hope this helps,
mark

Thank you for your feedback @Burntweenie

As @Buttercup is out of the office she will get back to you tomorrow i hope or i will if we get any news.

Kind regards APE

Hey

Thanks for your answer! I need the username of the member having the problem! Otherwise, I won't be able to help

Thanks for your help

@Buttercup the OP says now that all members are seeing incorrect dates.

@SLGray Thanks

Did you allow all your members to access http://iossc.forumotion.co.uk/f10-calendar-events topic?

I checked and some members don't see all dates! But dates appearing seem to be on the right place... Let me know!
