I have set my Joomla global configuration Settings to Mountain Time.

When I include the Date Format Code in Events Settings to

l d M Y - h:ia T

The code T returns CST and not MDT.

How do I fix this?

Thank you all for your support.

Anyone know what my issue is?

Hello,

When you save a date for your event in your database, the format is converted to UNIX time. This will only convert the day, month and year of your date, the timezone you have set is not included in this format so when the information is retrieved from your database and displayed according to the format you have set in the "Settings" tab of RSEvents! there will be no reference to your selected timezone.

Hello,

Since the time zone does not have any influence you could simply specify it the event description (or event intro area).

This is how solved the problem of Time Zone.

Usually the Servers (particularly Unix) are set to a given time zone by the server admin. If it is set to CST you HAVE to set your event time in CST zone even if you are ACTUALLY in EST time zone. So if your event is in New York starting at 3pm EST you should schedule it to start @2pm. This way all Newyork visitors would see it starting @3pm and Outlook download file will also reflect the CORRECT New York time.

To avoid this situation, I setup my server time to EST if I am actually in New York (EST time zone) no matter where ever is my server. I added

## Server Time Zone
SetEnv TZ America/New_York

to .htaccess file.

Now if I am scheduling an event in New York (EST time zone) I WILL schedule it starting @3pm and it show 3pm to all New York visitors, 2pm to all CST time zone etc.

If I am scheduling an event in Texas (CST Time zone) I will schedule my start time @2pm for it to show 2pm for TX visitors and 3pm to New York visitors and so on.

This has fixed my time zone issue all together.
