Thank you Thomas. You may very well have a point — I do use an ad blocker. I can’t really test it now, though, because after I removed the define(‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false); line from my config file, it still worked. So I’m guessing a recent WordPress update solved any conflict with ad blockers.

I also now turned off the ad blocker on my domain. Glad I can now take advantage again of the performance gains from concatenating the scripts.

Thanks.

I’m having the same issue. Was hoping it was fixed with 2.3.91, but that update won’t ever finish installing, so I guess that’s another issue.

I tried digging into this, and there seems to be an enormous amount of conflicting info about date and time functions, and timezone issues with PHP and WordPress. Ugh, I can see myself trying to tackle this same issue in the near future.

Not that I have enough experience with PHP and WordPress yet, but…

Is the action hook taking place after the email is already generated? It looks like WooCommerce is reverting back to UTC time (which is what it may be set to by default in the server’s PHP.INI file). Los Angeles standard time is 8 hours behind UTC.

Did you check to see if E_NOTICE or E_WARNING is set after the call to date_default_timezone_set?

I’d assume that WordPress posting logic would be using your Timezone setting in General Settings, and I figured you probably already checked that.

If I find anything more definitive, I’ll post here again.

I never found a fix. Randomly, it works (I don’t get that error), and I can continue editing posts and switching between text and view modes. But most of the time it throws the error, and basically the impact is that no page events are fired (it appears the error is short-circuiting the loading of jQuery on the page).

Very frustrating.

I don’t have this issue with other sites I have, and I don’t appear to have this issue when running the site locally from my own PC. I’ve turned off all Chrome extensions, but I do have this same problem in all browsers, so that was a wasted effort.

I’ve turned off all plugins and widgets, and went back to the past three default themes (2012, 2013, 2014), but the issue remains. As I mentioned above, I’ve even tried removing the entire plugins folder to ensure nothing was loaded to no avail.

Because this PHP script (load-scripts.php) is used for loading *all* scripts on the page, it’s extremely hard to trap and debug.
