I figure out a strange behaviour in event date.
When I save a date time from event detail, after saving a new time is showed me.
But in the database there is the correct time
MySql

Event Espresso
http://cl.ly/image/0j1g071m0e2H?_ga=1.219757726.689279188.1422181655
Sometimes either the end date was replaced and moved.
Could be something related to UTC?

Hi, the dates in the database are stored using UTC. They are then adjusted based on your timezone settings that are in the General Settings page of your WP dashboard.
Event Espresso needs a region or city to be set on that page.

Hi Lorenzo. It seems that the date picker is working with the UTC setting.
Have a look to this video

Hi, we do not recommend UTC settings for the General Settings page for WP.
If you have a UTC setting there, then please switch it to a city or region near you.
Can you post a screenshot of your general settings area for WordPress?

Hi Antonio,
I’ve run a few tests with your basic settings (Rome as location, date format as j FY and time format as H:i) and have not been able to recreate this.
Can you try disabling all other addons temporarily and see if that affects this issue?

May be i can give you temporary access or try to disable addons tonight

OK, well, from what I can see that you have posted it should work fine.
The disabling of the plugins is just to rule out any conflicts, before we look into it further.
I’ll try installing an Italian WP locally to see if that has any effect on the dates.

Dean, did you try to see if you are able to reproduce the error?

Last Update.
I deactivate some plugin to find a possible conflict.
The problem is another tool of ticketing (Event Made Easy).
Arghh. I cannot turn it off immediately. need some time too migrate everything
Is there any way to find a temporary workaround?

Hi Antonio,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. No the Italian version made no difference.
Regarding the other plugin, I can confirm that it is definitely that which is causing the issue. We do generally recommended not having more than one event management plugin running at the same time as often they use similar terms and settings that can unfortunately conflict.
I took a look at the code and narrowed the issue down to this
// set the timezone
$tzstring = get_option('timezone_string');
if (!empty($tzstring) ) {
@date_default_timezone_set ($tzstring);
}
which is line 257 – 261 in /wp-content/plugins/events-made-easy/events-manager.php
Disabling that code stopped the issue happening in EE, but I cannot say what other issues might be caused a s a result of disabling it.
Personally, I think that the EME author should make this code only applicable on EME related pages rather than having it site wide as it is currently, because it is obviously affecting other plugins.
