Is there a way to add timezone as one of the fields in the event settings for an event?

Most of our meetings are online web conferences and have attendees from all over the country(USA) remotely accessing via Webex. So we need an event time to also include a timezone.

Even if it could derive it from the event location param, that would be fine, as long as it's displayed wherever the time is displayed for events.

Please advise.

thanks!
Hi,

The event startend field does have a timezone configuration. Just head over to backend -> Events -> Event Categories -> Select Categories -> Custom Fields -> Click on the startend field to load up the configuration and enable the Timezone feature.

Thanks. The problem I'm having is that even when I set the timezone in the event settings, it only appears in the mtg details menu, which is not open by default. Is there any way to set the default view that's shown when people view a event details page? Details, rather than stream, etc.?

Thanks

Hi,

Hmm unfortunately this is not possible now but we will improvise the event header to incorporate the timezone settings for user to easily change the timezone.
