Identifier	#1847
Issue type	Major issue (breaks an entire feature)
Title	Calendar Module Event Date Discrepancy
Status	Completed
Handling member	PDStig
Addon	calendar
Description	I am located in Germany, (UTC +1) and whenever I add a SECOND event to my calendar, I have to forward the date by 1 day in order to get the added event to show in the proper place. If I edit the event after adding, it shows the desired date, however, the actual date queued was a day later than displayed/saved. This is quite exhausting as a large portion of my (in-progress) site relies heavily upon the calendar module. -Sean D. Reeves
Steps to reproduce	1. Set Composr timezone for Berlin. 2. Create an all-day calendar event. 3. Create a second all-day calendar event on the same date as Step 2. 4. Note that second event is displayed on previous date in calendar view.
Funded?	No

Automated response: Days for all-day events miscalculated if timezone is ahead

Timezones that are ahead of UTC (e.g. Europe) have all-day events calculated on the wrong date.

A hotfix (a TAR of files to upload) have been uploaded to this issue. These files are made to the latest intra-version state (i.e. may roll in earlier fixes too if made to the same files) - so only upload files newer than what you have already. Always take backups of files you are replacing or keep a copy of the manual installer for your version, and only apply fixes you need. These hotfixes are not necessarily reliable or well supported. Not sure how to extract TAR files to your Windows computer? Try 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.org/).
