Timer function: Time Range, does Not work for me

[VEDRAN]

Hi
I wanted to use Timer to show Dialog at a certain times during the day. Like when it is: Office After-Hours.
But it does not work for me. Can you check please?

Also, I would like to ask if there is an option to start a Timer function at a certain times of day only, but using Select: Conditions?

The 'start time' should be lower than the 'end time'.

I would like to ask if there is an option to start a Timer function at a certain times of day only, but using Select: Conditions?

Sorry, there is no standard option for this.

The 'start time' should be lower than the 'end time'.

I don' understand this so good. So If my bussines hours are 9-21H, so I don't work from 21H untill the next day 9AM, and I want to show the Dialog when I am NOT working ONLY, what should I do?

How do I set it up? Do I then need two timers and what should I enter in each Timer?

Please help.
Thanks.

Sorry, that will not work. It will only work for a time range on the same day.
The range is from 12:00:00 AM to 11:59:59 PM

This is a bit complex so I think it may require custom codes to address a solution.

Maybe you can reverse the logic?
Instead of showing a dialog when you're not working, instead hide the dialog when you are working.

I found a bug in the extension that is causing the issue that I am facing.

In auto start option when timer checks the correct time on document load the endTime var is never set to the desired end time instead it was made to set the startTime

Code: Select all

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(event)
{
   var startTime = new Date();
   startTime.setHours(10, 0, 0);
   var endTime = new Date();
   startTime.setHours(20, 57, 8); // <-- See?
   var currentTime = new Date();
   if (currentTime >= startTime && currentTime <= endTime)
   {
      TimerStartTimer1();
   }
});

Code: Select all

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(event)
{
   var startTime = new Date();
   startTime.setHours(10, 0, 0);
   var endTime = new Date();
   endTime.setHours(20, 57, 8); // <-- Has to be like this!
   var currentTime = new Date();
   if (currentTime >= startTime && currentTime <= endTime)
   {
      TimerStartTimer1();
   }
});

load the endTime var is never set to the desired end time instead it was made to set the startTime

This has been fixed in the latest build (12/25/2023).
