Table not updating[edit]

Something glitchy going on with this table and Nicholas's own page... I tried reloading the page and clearing the cache multiple times but the table won't update to the current week. Also, Nicholas's own page states the correct item and location but tells me the week is "the week beginning 7 March 2016". Jeree95 (talk) 15:19, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

It seems that the code was off for one hour between 15:00 and 16:00 UTC. this edit was able to make it proper for that hour, but now that it's past 16:00, I can revert it and it is still correct. I should poke Alex before I fiddle with things any further. G R E E N E R 16:04, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
The problem is back: It's 15:37 UTC on August 7th and 31 July 2017 is still boldfaced. After repeatedly clearing the cache. Steve1 (talk) 15:38, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
Fixed itself at 16:00 UTC, as per in-game time for daily change. - Infinite - talk 16:16, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
Grrr. Wish I'd gotten up an hour earlier to catch it. I'll see what I can pick apart from the new code, but it's much easier to test on the fly. G R E E N E R 16:33, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
I just re-read your words, Infinite. Is the daily meant to be at 16:00 UTC? If so, then the info on the page needs to be updated. G R E E N E R 16:45, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
Well, from my experience all daily and weekly events rotate at 16:00 UTC with the +1 for summertime/daylight savings time taken into account (so technically 15:00UTC+1 (UTC is the same time as GMT, but DST turns GMT into BST, or GMT+1)). This goes back to 15:00UTC (15:00 GMT) when DST is over. The table seems to reflect this accurately, though I may be missing something.
So in short: the table seems to understand daylight savings time and updates at the correct time accordingly. - Infinite - talk 16:51, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
So I reread this article, where it specifically states the weekly reset is at 15:00 UTC instead of 16:00 UTC like daily missions. Although I cannot find a source for this on the wiki, I will assume that that time is correct. Thus the time was wrong by 1 hour in the most recent change. - Infinite - talk 15:35, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
Alright, if it's meant to change over at 15:00, then I believe the code portion {{#ifexpr: {{#time:H}} > 15 is the part that must change. Right now it's looking for when the hour is greater than 15 to act, when it should be greater than or equal to.
I won't be around on Sunday to test, but if any of you happen to be on during this 15:00 section of time, could you change the > to a >= and see if that works? Much appreciated. G R E E N E R 18:39, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
You mean Monday, right?
I might be able to make it. Not 100% certain. Steve1 (talk) 21:14, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
... Oh, Monday.... Well, I made the change already, let's see how Monday is. G R E E N E R 15:11, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
I'm most likely here to check. - Infinite - talk 17:45, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

(Reset indent) Works correctly at 15:00 UTC. - Infinite - talk 15:00, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

Edit conflict. :P Same here. Steve1 (talk) 15:02, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
