Timezone issues

Oh, WP 3.5.1, EM 5.3.6.1

can you try dev version 5.3.6.3 which includes improved offset calculations in ical for some servers?

I didn’t end up trying the 5.3.6.3. I did however, modify the code in a template file so that it is working as expected. I just added “hard code” to explicitly state the timezone as central time (chicago).

Here’s the code I added:
echo “BEGIN:VCALENDAR
VERSION:2.0
CALSCALE:GREGORIAN
METHOD:PUBLISH
PRODID:TCCGOSPEL
X-FROM-URL:https://www.tccgospel.org/events.ics
X-WR-RELCALID:TccGospel
X-WR-CALNAME:TccGospel
BEGIN:VTIMEZONE
TZID:America/Chicago
X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Chicago
BEGIN:DAYLIGHT
TZOFFSETFROM:-0600
TZOFFSETTO:-0500
TZNAME:CDT
DTSTART:19700308T020000
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=3;BYDAY=2SU
END:DAYLIGHT
BEGIN:STANDARD
TZOFFSETFROM:-0500
TZOFFSETTO:-0600
TZNAME:CST
DTSTART:19701101T020000
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=11;BYDAY=1SU
END:STANDARD
END:VTIMEZONE
“;

And the code that I changed:
$dateStart = ‘;TZID=America/Chicago:’.date(‘Ymd\THis\Z’,$EM_Event->start);
$dateEnd = ‘;TZID=America/Chicago:’.date(‘Ymd\THis\Z’,$EM_Event->end);

Again, I know that it is hard coded, but we’re not moving out of the central time zone, and it works.

Not flexible if you move somewhere else, but should work in your case ??

I have a similar issue.

Adding ics to Mac calendar time zone is correct.

Adding ics to Google calendar wrong time zone is used.

Using latest dev version.
