Gibsonm Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 For some time now the Calendar / Events have reflected for me the local time for BG ANZAC but seems messed up re other events: Here: 1. BG ANZAC is correct for me. 2. TGIF which falls on a Saturday for me is incorrect. 3. GefGem, again a Saturday session for me, is incorrect. 4. Kanium, which is a Monday morning session for me, is incorrect. Do people in other parts of the world have these last three correct and BG ANZAC incorrect? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I confirm this, there is something wrong in my calendar as well. Every event except TGIF is in correct hour and day, but TGIF takes place in Friday morning (should be Saturday morning, if they are playing Friday nights at US time). It seems that the calendar doesn't consider the change of date. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted December 15, 2022 Author Share Posted December 15, 2022 I guess my primary concern is the use of this as a marketing tool. When people ask me about multi player events, I refer them to the calendar. Unfortunately if the calendar is incorrect (in terms of doing the required conversions for someone's local time zone) then it has limited utility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Solution Sean Posted December 16, 2022 Administrators Solution Share Posted December 16, 2022 I reported this to the invision developers some time ago, I was told it was on the list to be fixed. I'll ask again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Sean Posted December 17, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 17, 2022 I just installed the latest version, which supposedly had changes to the calendar. Can someone please post another screenshot with the messed up calendar entry along with their time zone for reference? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other VU / event entries one "day" early. That is, Kanium should be on a Monday morning and both entries listed as Friday above should be listed on Saturday. Current Time Zone: LIMA.

Administrators Sean Posted December 21, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 21, 2022 Can you try making a new event at roughly the same time? Does it have the same problem? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the issue is that the events I make are fine, for me. Its the events others make that display the wrong details for me. E.g. I create a BG ANZAC event - the local time and date for me is correct. I look at TGIF or Kanium, created by others and the day/time is wrong (i.e. TGIF for me is a Saturday afternoon event and Kanium is an early Monday morning event). Perhaps can you look at my BG ANZAC entry (0830 GMT) and see if its right for you (Texas equivalent): Local time conversions: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20221222T0830 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Sean Posted December 21, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 21, 2022 That one is right for me. I added a new one called test. Does it show up as saturday for you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSe419E Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 I just checked BGANZAC’s listing and it showed the correct time/day for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That works: Perhaps there's an issue with the Kanium / TGIF ones since they are ongoing (I don't know if they are or not)? Each month I create the entries for that month (I manage the last event of the previous month and use it to create similar events), so they are the "correct" time accounting for shifts to/from Summer time, etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Sean Posted December 21, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 21, 2022 OK - sounds like the key is to delete the old event and create a new one. Then the time zone works correctly. I started a new TGIF entry starting on Dec 23. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibsonm Posted December 21, 2022 Author Share Posted December 21, 2022 @Nike-Ajax @Major duck Guys, Based on the above, any chance you can update your Calendar entry at some point so the information is accurate for people who look at the Events tab? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abraxas Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Sorry, but it doesn't work! I deleted the Friday SBPro-GefGem events and created new event datas for it: and as a result in the calendar still the fault: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if that's the intention and desire, then that's fine! Abraxas I maybe reading it incorrectly but that is what I took from these two parts of your second image: and: If the 8:00pm entry is what you made and you are on German time (CET?), then isn't that 1 hour ahead of the 7:00pm GMT part? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abraxas Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Yes, it's correct! But if on the event calendar the time shows "08:00 pm", does this mean for everybody 08:00 pm (GMT) or 08:00 pm (LOC)? That's the real question! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entry is for 1900 GMT. For you that displays as 8:00pm. For me (see below) it adjusts that to my local equivalent, 0600 Saturday: Once Sean / Volcano redoes the ones for TGIF from 30 DEC and beyond and Kanium redoes theirs, they will all be correct. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Sean Posted December 21, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 21, 2022 Well, that sucks, because that is the new event. Only the first instance of repeating events show correctly, all the follow on ones are wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of mine are freshly created, albeit a modification of an earlier one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
