Calendar event seems broken?

Bug

Hello dear Discourse friends,

after the latest update all of my calendar events look weird:

The image displays a calendar event for Erste-Hilfe-Kurse from 9:00 to 17:00 on October 14, with an encrypted barcode and a connection link to the source. (Captioned by AI)

Does anybody experience the same or knows why this is happening? On all of our events the date is not displayed correctly.

Any hint is appreciated.

Yes @magie sorry it’s a recent regression. I don’t think most people see it as it might be related to a specific config of your event.

Can you give me the raw of this post please so we can try to reproduce locally and fix it.

Hi @joffreyjaffeux
Thank you for your quick reply. I am not sure if this is what you mean with raw:

[event start="2025-10-14 09:00" status="private" name="9:00 - 17:00 Uhr: Erste-Hilfe-Kurs · 119 (ABC)" timezone="Europe/Berlin" minimal="true"]
[/event]

Please let me know if something else is meant with “raw”.

It used to look fine before. If we need to change something it would be lovely if you can let us know. (Usually, we also don’t need a timezone since we are always in Berlin timezone.)

We see the same error:

[event start="2025-06-25 17:00" status="public" name="Test Event" timezone="Europe/Berlin" recurrence="every_four_weeks" end="2025-06-25 19:00" allowedGroups="trust_level_0"]
[/event]

displays as:
[date=2025-06-25 time=17:00 format=‚ddd, MMM D LT‘ timezone=Europe/Berlin hideTimezone=false range=from] → Heute 19:00

Thank you

We haven’t been able to repro this locally, but clearly this is related to german and typographic quotes.

Im attempting this fix:

Please let me know if it improves the situation for you.

Yes , the date of the event is displayed correctly again: [quote=“xxx, post:1, topic:17970”]
→ Sat, Jun 28 12:00 PM→Sat, Jun 28 4:00 PM
[/quote]

Thank you very much for the quick fix!!!

Can you also say when the attendant list will be reset again after the event?
Our lists accumulate and accumulate if we do not set the event to private in between to wipe the list. Is there a special configuration to get this?
Thank you …

Thank you @joffreyjaffeux for the update! :bouquet: :two_hearts:
It does work, however, there is still a part not displayed correctly. I think it is when an event spans multiple days:

This image displays a digital calendar event notification for a training session on de-escalation techniques from 9:00 to 17:00 on July 3rd, with some information obscured for privacy. (Captioned by AI)

Raw:

[event start="2025-07-03 09:00" status="private" name="9:00 - 17:00 Uhr: Training: Deeskalations- und foobar" url="https://foobar" timezone="Europe/Berlin" minimal="true" end="2025-07-04 17:00"]
[/event]

No plan yet, but yes I agree it’s not ideal atm.

Thanks, @Magie for catching the similar issue for the ending date.

As @joffreyjaffeux said, it has to do with quotes localization. Now, both, start and end date should be rendered fine.

The fix applied can be found here:
