    Hi

    Tried to buy promo that said is running through Nov 30 (with ad still being on top) and when I entered it it said “expired”.

    Also noticed that the base prices have also gone up from the last time I got license at considerably.

    I have noticed this as well and emailed screen shots over to the team. I tried at approximately 7:00pm PST on all 3 websites (70% off for WPInvoicing and UsersWP!!).

    I am sure they will resolve this ASAP. The team at AYECODE LTD is great!

    I think it might have expired at UK times, i will talk with Paolo later when he comes online to see what we can do.

    Thanks,

    Hello Stiofan and Paolo:

    Interesting, there is an 8 hour difference between UK and US->California time, so the coupon therefore expired at 4pm PST. I was confused because your email came into my box at 6:40pm alerting me to only 24hours left for special black Friday promotion.

    This has really brought to my attention my need to check which times are used for various plugins Coupon codes expiration times. Does WP Invoicing Discounts expiration date use server time or outside time server to check when the Discount Expires?

    Thank you very much for your time and replies.

    Hi Jonathan,

    WP Invoicing discounts uses the server time for discount expiration feature.

    Hello Kiran:

    Thank you for clarifying how WP Invoicing checks for discount expiration.

    I submitted a thread in the bug support forum for WP Invoicing regarding setting the time from the datetime stamp that is displayed. I believe your Calendar JS popup only supports date and therefore the time is not saved nor editable. Guust said he has added it to the list to be fixed.

    I think that will really help allow me (and I am sure others) to set a specific time of expiration to avoid issues like the one we encountered that started this thread. Not to mention run happy hour specials or other intra-day specials.

    Thank you Team GeoDirectory/WPInvoicing/UsersWP !!!

    Warmest Regards,

    Jonathan
