TOPIC: Time format

Hello,

(Old booking form)
Times of events put in by 24H format are displayed in 12 hour format (where do I adjust ?)

Times of events put in at front end (by organizer) are displayed +1 or +2 hours ???

grtz

Hi Christian,

in the layout settings are some settings according to time and date formats. For 24 hour format you have to change the lowercase h to a higher case H for example. (e.g H:i)

Times are adjusted to the users timezone (or if not logged in on joomla configurations) and are saved automatically in UTC.

Best regards,

Yves

Thanks Yves for the info, It works ... but ...

When you insert the times in UTC they are diplayed correctly..

However when you edit the times as organiser the are not put back to UTC, They stay in local time..
So when you save again the times are augmented with 2 hours

It happens every time you "save" the event



Now I call it a (sun)day

Hey Christian,
Forgive me for being skeptical about that, but we already had people reporting this and each time it turned out that something is wrong on their server and not with the component

It doesn't matter if you edit the times as organiser or as super user or as another group allowed to modify the event. The time should be displayed in your local time and it should be saved in UTC.

Could you please do a step by step test.
Create a new event -> look what is the time in the db. Then go ahead and edit this event -> look at the db. Is the time in UTC or is changed.

Also make sure that the user that you use for editing has the correct time zone.

Actually it would be also very good if you could test the same thing with com_content. If it is working properly for com_content it should work in matukio as well.

Regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

I tested the com_content and find no error there,
Joomla (server) is in timezone Brussels, The user is in time zone Brussels
Eding an article in frontened or backend does not affect the "time" after savening

Editing an event (matukio) in the backend does not affect the time when saving

It is only when you edit an event in the frontend (done by the organizer) that each time you "save", 2 hours are added to the time. (I use the old booking form !

It is not critical, since you can edit the event in the backend

Hi Yves

Thanks for the timezone error
If I can ask ...(propose ??? )

If you have an order of rewriting the old code (old booking form)
Frontend
Make it possible for an organizer to add, edit en delete the booking of a user

Anyway, I can help myself
but when I want to change a booking I have to do it directly in the dbase

Also You gave me a way to come back after "add booking" or "save changes" to higher level (display of booking)
Can you give me the same link for "after cancel booking"

anyway .. thanks ...
Christian

Hi Christian,

Make it possible for an organizer to add, edit en delete the booking of a user

this is still on my todo-list for 2.1.3 and the only reason i have not released it yet. Deleting is already possible

Also You gave me a way to come back after "add booking" or "save changes" to higher level (display of booking)
Can you give me the same link for "after cancel booking"

Okay going to integrate this there too.
