Setting timezone through intervention without setting it in the DB: new posts are scheduled
tombroucke opened this issue · comments
Hi,
I just got to know Intervention, and have implemented it in a first project, but encountered a problem.
In a fresh install, the value for the timezone_string option is EMPTY, so WordPress assumes UTC +0. In my config/intervention.php, I set the timezone to Europe/Brussels, this is correctly reflected wp-admin/options-general.php. The DB value for timezone_string remains EMPTY.
When I create a new post or page, the "publish" button has been renamed to "schedule".
If I disable intervention, update the timezone_string to Europe/Brussels, and re-enable intervention (or just set timezone_string to Europe/Brussels in the DB), the issue is solved.
Is there a fix for this?
I'm having a similar issue with translations. In the plugins_loaded hook, get_locale() returns en_US, while the language is set to nl_NL in my config/intervention.php file. Database value is EMPTY. I need to update the database value in order to get the correct translation.
Am I missing the point? Is intervention only disabling the options, but not settings their values?
Hey @tombroucke,
I will check on the first issue regarding the timezone.
I'm using the WordPress switch_to_locale function for languages, with the init hook. https://github.com/soberwp/intervention/blob/main/src/Application/General.php#L125-L134
The plugins_loaded hook fires before and therefore Intervention has not yet applied the function.
Regarding database values, Intervention uses pre_option when available, and therefore does not update the DB. Here's the thread on the reasoning behind that. #64
You can import values under Tools > Intervention > Application which will run update_option and update the database values according to the Intervention config file. (please do a database backup prior!). This should solve your issue with the plugins_loaded hook firing first.
@tombroucke I seem unable to reproduce the timezone issue with a post changing from publish to schedule. Do you have any other plugins installed which may affect this?
Hi,
Please see the screen recording below. Fresh install, twentytwentyone & intervention as the only active plugin. When I deactivate intervention, I can correctly publish new posts.
