Date Formats

Hi, Chris,

The link on the settings page under the Date(s) field doesn’t work.

Thank you for pointing it out – will fix it in the next plugin version.

We would like to run a sale from 12:00 am on October 31 to 11:59 pm on November 3rd and are looking for the correct format.

I think what you need is:

October 31 00:00:00 - November 3 23:59:59

Can you please post the accepted date and time formats here?

The “Date(s)” option must be set as date range(s) in from - to format, i.e., dates must be separated by the hyphen - symbol, e.g.:

14.02.2021 15:00 - 26.02.2021 15:00

You can add multiple date ranges separated by the semicolon ; symbol, i.e., from1 - to1; from2 - to2; .... The algorithm stops on the first matching date range.

Dates can be set in any format parsed by the PHP strtotime() function. However, don’t use the hyphen - symbol – it’s reserved for separating from and to values.

Examples
