Show Server Time Information in the Cloudron Server Menu
-
I’d like to suggest adding a small piece of information to the Server menu: the current server time and timezone.
When I move to a new hosting provider, I often forget whether I have already adjusted the server time settings or not.
If Cloudron showed the current server time and timezone directly in the Server section, I could immediately see whether the server is still using the hosting provider’s default timezone or if it has already been changed to my own country’s timezone.
Even a simple read‑only display like:
- Current server time:
2025-12-19 14:32 - Timezone:
Europe/Berlin(UTC+1)
would help a lot. This could:
- Reduce confusion when checking logs, backups, and scheduled tasks (cron, app restarts, etc.)
- Help ensure that all time‑based operations are aligned with the admin’s local time
- Make it easier to verify the configuration quickly after migrating to a new server
I believe this little detail could be very helpful for many users.
Thank you for considering this suggestion and for all the work you put into improving Cloudron.

only the time zone, not the actual time -

The server timezone is always UTC
no? Or do you want System -> Settings to also be shown in Server page?Maybe the current time can be shown on Server > System Information
It displays like:
Current server time: 2025-12-19 14:32
Timezone: Europe/Berlin (UTC+1)
