Good Day!

We reviewed in more detail your plugin files and noticed one of them can use a minor udpate (see below). The update will improve your plugin’s performance. At your next convenient update, it would be great if you can incorporate the change.

Change tested. No issues noted.

Thank you!

Your plugin works great as noted here. Unfortunately, upon installing your plugin, the following happens:

1. WordPress’ Site Health Status check reveals the following message: PHP default timezone is invalid
2. WordPress Translation Updates cannot be installed. That is, every time we click “Update Translations“, nothing happens. The updates cannot be installed (indefinite loop).

Can you kindly look into this for a possible fix?

Thank you!

Good Day,

We have created a site page that automatically displays our server’s date and time in UTC time when the page is accessed (or triggered) by a site visitor. The information is pulled from:

WP Dashboard > Settings > General > Timezone – Date Format – Time Format

Our Challenge:

We would like to change the above information to display the site visitor’s date, time, and timezone (i.e., based on the visitor’s server IP address and/or geolocation).

Details (Frontend): https://prnt.sc/isP4w0sp8pIp
Details (Backend): https://prnt.sc/-KFMb9_BHYyW

Request:

1. Is there any way your plugin can help us accomplish the above?
2. We’re using this code snippet to generate a shortcode that can be placed on any page location to display our server’s date, time, and timezone. Would you know how to modify it in order to use your plugin’s features? (i.e., display visitor’s date, time, and timezone instead).

Notes:

1. We installed and activated your plugin but,”out of the box”, it did not help.
2. If the above is doable, kindly provide step-by-step instructions to incorporate your solution.

Thank you!

Hello Mike,

First of all, really enjoying using your plugin!

Question:
In the back-end for events I have two ACF date-picker fields, the date (Ymd) for the start-date and the end-date.

Yesterday I noticed when I choose a date, let’s say for now 13 sept, it will set the day 1 day earlier, so to 12 Sept. When I disable your plugin then 13 Sept will be 13 Sept.

Do you have any ideas what could cause this?

Thank you in advance!

Hi, Mike,

I am organising an international online event with scheduled meetings, for example (times in server time: UCT)

10:00 1/8/23 Meeting 1
12:00 1/8/23 Meeting 2

But if the user was in London (UCT+1) I want the times on the page to be adjusted accordingly. Eg

11:00 1/8/23 Meeting 1
13:00 1/8/23 Meeting 2

I appreciate that this isn’t quite what your plugin does, but I wondered if you could offer any suggestions on how I can achieve this. It feels like it should be possible, but I can’t see how to do it, and I have not found any plugins that come close – yours seems to be the nearest.

I tried to contact you via your website, but the name and email address fields on your contact form are read-only.

Thanks for any help you (or anyone else) can offer.

When using wp cli I’m seeing the following warnings:

PHP Warning:  Undefined array key "SERVER_NAME" in /sites/mysite.com/files/wp-content/plugins/use-clients-time-zone/use-clients-timezone-class.inc.php on line 15

Warning: Undefined array key "SERVER_NAME" in /sites/mysite.com/files/wp-content/plugins/use-clients-time-zone/use-clients-timezone-class.inc.php on line 15

Hi,

I have tried your last update, but it didn’t change the timezone before the plugins loaded.

Will you update/fix it?

Thanks.

Hello, I don’t quite understand how this works correctly

I have a custom field with time, let’s say 13:00, after activation, the time goes back 6 hours – why 6? Edit: I understand that 6 is due to my position, but my difference from UTC is +7, the extra time is worth GMT +3

Is it possible to set the initial time zone, for example Europe/Moscow, and already from this time zone using the plugin to set the correct local time of the user?

Hi,

Is it possible to load the Timezone before all the plugins loaded?

Or is it possible to refresh the plugin after the Timezone loaded?

I have a plugin that need to be refreshed after the Timezone adjusted.

Thank you.

Interested in your plugin.

Does your plugin just work for Posts or can it be used for all visitors to a website? I will be putting events on my website and need the dates / times to be timezone aware. Currently I can only use my WP timezone setting which will cause a problem as the events will be attended from a Global user base.

thanks- Justin

Sorry, i’m a noob, but I really don’t understand what i should do to show different pages for every day. I see the example site but how it works? What and where i must write to show one page on the 12’th of february and another on the 13’th?

Hi dear, thanks for plugin. It works perfectly with https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/bg-orthodox-calendar/ but does not work with https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/this-day-in-history/. What could be the reason?

Hi,
I was not able to use this plugin.

Please further clarification regarding the use of this plugin here.

Thank you.

Just a heads up

sites may experience problems if changing timezones using date_default_timezone_set. WP expects it to always be UTC and display of things in different timezones are achieved in other ways.

Hi

I want to use this plugin with Appointment+ plugin to display user’s local time as the appointment time in the website. In the WordPress backend I’d like to see my local time for the appointments. Do you think this is doable with this plugin.

Thanks in advance.

Looking for a plugin that shows the comments date in the user’s time zone. Installed but the sub menu item does not show up in the Settings area. Using latest WordPress. Not sure what’s happened.
