Two bugs came in from my partner on our ticketing site. Both were fixed and live by midnight.

## What was wrong

The homepage was sending anyone who was signed in straight to the admin. Venue staff could never see their own public site.

Events were dropping into the past the moment a show started. They used to drop the next morning. That behavior got lost when the site was rebuilt.

## The empty result

At 9:43 PM the agent working on the site's code reported on event 570. It had zero orders of any status. The agent said this confirmed the negative finding, not just a filtering artifact. It had ruled out its own status filter as the reason the event looked empty.

## Shipping it

At 11:33 PM the agent had committed the fixes locally and pushed nothing. By 11:42 PM both were on the live site, and I had posted the result to my partner.

## The third find

While in the code I found that checkout has no start-time gate at all. Someone can still buy a ticket to a show from months ago. I filed that as its own ticket. It is not fixed.
