Special for Products Date not working for current day

[kd5cna]

Opencart 1.5.4.1 and previous.
admin/controller/catalog/product.php
ISSUE: Special will not start on current date.
SOLUTION BELOW

REPLACE THE FOLLOWING

foreach ($product_specials as $product_special) {
if (($product_special['date_start'] == '0000-00-00' || $product_special['date_start'] < date('Y-m-d')) && ($product_special['date_end'] == '0000-00-00' || $product_special['date_end'] > date('Y-m-d'))) {
$special = $product_special['price'];

                break;
            }                   
        }

WITH THE FOLLOWING

foreach ($product_specials as $product_special) {
if (($product_special['date_start'] == '0000-00-00' || $product_special['date_start'] < date('Y-m-d') || $product_special['date_start'] == date('Y-m-d')) && ($product_special['date_end'] == '0000-00-00' || $product_special['date_end'] > date('Y-m-d'))) {
$special = $product_special['price'];

                break;
            }                   
        }

again works fine for me.

check what the date and time is on your host.

If you set the start date for current date it does not enable the special.
Looking at the code you can see how it could not possibly work as is.
