Setting iCal time zone

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone,

I am using EME on the latest wordpress to great success. http://www.ysa.org.au/sydney/events/

However, we are running into a problem. We are based in Australia, and when EME configures the iCal file it doesn’t include a timezone, or it seems to default to the timezone of the server, or GMT or something similar.

The problem comes when we pull the cal in to Google Calendar, as it then sets the wrong times for everything. 🙁

Anyway, I was having a poke around in eme_ical.php and wasn’t sure what to change to include an Australian Sydney timezone with the iCal file when it is created.

Anyone know how I could do this? Help would be greatly appreciated.

Same problem. Would be nice if we could specify a GMT offset in the shortcode:

Edit: I now see the related topic

Doesn’t sound like the plugin author has much interest in fixing this.

To follow this up, perhaps letting the iCalcreator PHP class helper do the dirty work would make this possible?

i would like to fix it, but it is low priority: wp should be timezone aware per user, not just eme (like I mentioned in the post you linked to). It will happen, but it takes time …
