Setting timezone through intervention without setting it in the DB: new posts are scheduled

[tombroucke]

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.
