TOPIC: DateTme as one database entry

DateTme as one database entry 15 years 4 months ago #9851

It appears from the database that the Time and Date are saved as one entry using PHP DateTime. (EventStartDate and EventEndDate)

This assumes that all entries will share the same Daylight Savings Time properties. In the states, there are many places that do not use DST so it becomes an issue.

If the server adjusts for DST and the event state does not, won't the event listing display be off by that hour?

Wouldn't it work better to have a static listing of the hour of start and finish? Or, in many cases, it is not necessary to have the finish time of an event because it ends whenever it is over (not defined).

Hello,

Unfortunately this cannot be directly achieved in RSEvents! as it will require a lot of source code modifications to the component in order to change the way the date is set for the events.
