Date error in the diary.

Hello everyone, it seems there is a mistake in the diary calendar. To select the correct day, you must select the previous day.
Allego Screen.

Good job.

I suspect you are using an older version of CumulusMX. That issue was resolved a few updates ago.

Code: Select all

3.10.0 - b3115
——————————————
- Fix: Diary Editor creating entries on the wrong day, and revamp the interface a bit

Enjoy,
Paul

his editor image says he is using the latest (3.10.4 b3121)

Exact! Latest version available.

Good job! Andrew

And your file "interface/js/diaryeditor.js" has the following Last Modified date?...

Code: Select all

Hello,

I confirm that I had deleted and reinserted all the files in the "INTERFACE" directory.

So are the updated files. I have now tried to delete and restore the INTERFACE files, but nothing has changed ....

thanks! Andrew

I cant say I noticed anything. I added an entry yesterday on the 29th of March, and I selected the 29th of March. I did NOT have to select the 28th.

Just thinking out aloud, could you confirm that the date and time is correct on the device CumulusMX is installed on?

What about clearing your cache?

If that does not work would you try the version of the script below please? I think it is a daylight saving "thing" now. - This diary is a real &%$£$%!

@Paul, could you try it as well please - has your diary been working OK since the DST changeover? I suspect so, I think it is a east/west of the meridian DST thing.

The root of issue is the DatePicker control can be made to work in UTC for all but one function - which MX uses along with others

Another reason not to use DST for weather data collection. It's a bad idea

DST is bad for mostly everything.
What happened to the European Union decision to stop using DST from 2021?

@freddie I won't vote down DST

as DST makes for nice longer summer evening, and standard time makes for a more acceptable winter time here.

And Mark, my Weather Diary has been working well since b3115. I just replaced it with new diaryeditor.js and that also works good. We had DST start March 14.

Enjoy,
Paul

Exactly what it is useful for (unlike recording weather data

)
