Set Timezone
-
@cleveradmin maybe something else is needed. Can you tell me how I can test this myself? As in, how do I know if timezone setting is applied correctly or not inside rocket.chat ?
-
@girish A user can't set the timezone, it pulls from the server. So the reason I came across this is setting business hours so that when we embed the live chat-functionality on our website, it doesn't show after business hours. I don't believe there is a way to show the set timezone. We just know it's not setting the timezone correctly because our live chat shows offline even though it's within the set business hours.
-
And just another note on this. I can't even work around this by setting the business hours in UTC because it doesn't allow going past midnight. So if I set a start time of 2PM and an end time of 2AM, it doesn't work at all.
-
@cleveradmin this kinda seems like an app bug rather than a Cloudron package bug. Generally the apps as such should run in UTC and then translate the time according to the current user to make sense without having everyone calculate the correct hours on their own.

@cleveradmin have you reached out to the upstream project in github about this?
-
@cleveradmin sure. https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/rocketchat-app/ is the repo and https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/rocketchat-app/-/blob/master/Dockerfile is the Dockerfile. If they want to test , they can also use the demo instance https://my.demo.cloudron.io (username: cloudron password: cloudron)
