Calendar Incorrect TimeZone

[aBiSh]

Hi. I'm also getting tired of my calendar questions but I'll promise this will be the last today. 

Our forum's default time zone is GMT +12:00 New Zealand. When I create a calendar entry, it shows on the calendar one day behind.

Is there any other time zone setting I need to look into?

Hi aBiSh,

When you view the forum, the time stamps in place will be from your own time zone rather than the one that is set as your forums default. Is the GMT +12:00 New Zealand time zone the one you use? Or does the calendar appear to be representing your time zone?

If it is not representing your time zone, can you provide a link to the forum please?

[aBiSh]

Sure. <link removed>

The forum and my computer has the same timezone GMT+12 New Zealand

I created an event for Waitangi Day on February 6. It shows February 5 on our calendar.

Can I have you create a new test event for the 6th and see if the same issue occurs for you now, or if the new test event will be set properly?

Hi Ricky! It's still the same. I created April 18 for Good Friday. The date on the event itself is correct but shows on the April 17 on the Calendar.

With that in mind, I'm looking at the calendar now.

It's already the 1st of February here in New Zealand and it still defaults to January month view when we click on Calendar on the top menu.

Thanks. I took a look at the calendar and the actual time stamp for the date for the event you created shows as April 17th on this end. However, I'm able to create new events with the correct date in your calendar without issue.

With that noted, because this seems like a bug, I'm going to go ahead and let our developers know about this issue you're experiencing, and will move this topic to the bugs board. Thanks for the heads up on this

Thank you so much Ricky! In the meantime, we will just have to refrain from adding events to not confuse people.

Looking forward to this.

Hi Ricky (Report Bugs Moderator/Admin)! Thank you for liking my post.

Any update on this? I created a test event just now (February 7 today in NZ). Shows February 6 on the calendar but the date on the event when you click on it is correct.

Hi aBiSh,

This is still in the list of bugs for the developers to get to.

Thank you Michael! Looking forward to this fixed.

Just noticed this too and see that you are working on it already
Just added one for February 11 but it stuck on February 10 (rechecked the date and it says 2013-02-11)
Only thing i was wondering about is will the calendar notes change date themselfs or will we have to change them ourselfs?
If we have to change them ourself I will wait til it is fixed to add more if it will change automatically i will continue with it.

Hi Entris,

I cannot guarantee that the adjustments to the calendar will be retroactive, but I see no reasons why they should not be.

Tyvm for your responce Michael

I'll just hold on for a bit and see whats happening when the bug is fixed and go from there.

Wonder how our developers are getting along with this bug?
