Description
I have a page where I want each month to show a different block, so each block I've created has two dates, basically a start (visible) and stop (hidden) date, so that each month the content will change, but no intervention will be needed that whole time by an author. However, it doesn't seem to be working as expected for future dates. See screenshot which shows the settings for the April content block (visible on 4/1, hidden on 5/1), except that it's March and it's showing. I tried inverting the logic (hidden 4/1, visible 5/1) in case I have it backwards but that didn't change the behavior. Single dates work fine. I can have each block appear in its proper month, but I want the previous month's block to then disappear. IMO something is wrong here. Either my use of the block in this way is as intended and it's not working, OR, the intent of multiple dates is not clear and it needs to be made more clear.
I may have miscategorized this ticket by choosing the wrong component, but wasn't sure which to use, please correct.

Web page showing both March and April scheduled content blocks even though April is set for April 1st visibility and May 1st hidden.
