Hi, I’m wondering the time zone settings. Can I specify a time zone and let different users know the time for their own.

The time is always displayed in whatever timezone is set in the user’s browser.
Times are stored as unix timestamps (i.e. UTC) and then converted into the user’s timezone in the client via moment.js.
You can see this in action by viewing any events topic, [e.g. this topic](https://discourse.angusmcleod.com.au/t/party-with-the-prime-minister/20), in two different timezones.
You can open a chrome window in a different timezone by creating the dir `~/chrome-profile` then running
```plaintext
TZ='US/Pacific' open -na "Google Chrome" --args "--user-data-dir=$HOME/chrome-profile"
```

Looking pretty good. Is there a way to change the display from 24h to am/pm?
Also, I think users will expect to find some sort of popup calendar when they click on the calendar icon. Could you make the link in the date-time-container trigger a popup calendar (similar to a date picker) instead of a link to the topic page?

Not currently, but I will add this as a setting this weekend.

I’m not sure which calendar icon you’re referring to here. Do you mean this label in the topic list?

Yes, that’s the div I was talking about (thanks for the pic). I’m used to having a calendar pop up whenever I click on a link with that icon… Maybe its just me.

@11145 What was the last thing you did before this error occurred? Did you remove an event from a topic?
Also, the stack trace is missing the first line, e.g.
`NoMethodError - undefined method `to_datetime' for nil:NilClass`
Could you take another look at the log and see if there is anything else relevant?

hm, I’m not sure it makes sense to stick a calendar in in that fashion. Perhaps a calendar as an entirely separate list, like the Locations Plugin replaces the topic list with a map. I have no plans to do that any time soon though.
But having different parts of the same row take the user to different UIs would not be good UX. It would also be unexpected given the way topic list rows work in all other topic lists.
The _association_ of that icon with linking to a calendar is a separate issue though. I think there should be an icon there, as without one it may not be immediately obvious what the numbers refer to. Can you think of a better icon to use there?

Perhaps the icon could be omitted if you had something like:
Sep 12th (2-4:30pm)
Else maybe:

Thanks, but that looks like an error for the [locations plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/locations-plugin/69742), not this plugin. Could you re-post in that topic? I’ll take a look at that in a bit.
Could you take a look at my follow up for your previous post? Cheers

I think I’ve fixed it, but I want to be sure.

I will add formatting for event labels to allow for this kind of format, however as the current format will still be an option (and other formats), I think it makes sense to have an icon.

hm, I think the tick is a little confusing as it doesn’t connote anything in this context.
`fa-calendar-o` is possible
This is what it looks like in context.
vs `fa-calendar`:

You know what, I’ll just make the icon an optional setting when I add different datetime formats. 🙂
I’ll be doing this over the weekend.

I just pushed three new settings:
- `events_event_label_icon`: Allows you to set the class of the event label icon
- `events_event_label_format`: Allows you to set the moment.js format of the datetime in the event label.
- `events_event_label_short_format`: Allows you to set the moment.js format of the datetime in the short event label in the topic list
Example:

Ah ok - am not going to be able to do that sadly as running on [Communiteq](https://www.communiteq.com) (formerly DiscourseHosting).

On the Professional plan and up, we can put customers on tests-passed upon request.
The plugin is working now.
