April Showers Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 And this is just the first week! I've added all the chats for the whole anniversary celebration to the Forum Calendar so you can plan ahead and clear your schedule. I've entered the times for the chats when I set them up in the calendar, so if you have your time zone set correctly on the forum, the forum calendar should be able to do the time-zone conversion for you. When you click on a specific chat in the calendar, it will show the date and time for you on the top purple bar! Check it out now to make sure it is working for you.

A-M Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 April, thanks for this information: If you have your time zone set correctly on the forum, the forum calendar should be able to do the time-zone conversion for you. When you click on a specific chat in the calendar, it will show the date and time for you on the top purple bar. But it does not seem to be working for me. Under my settings I have the time zone for where I live. Is there anywhere else I need to change it? P.S. Just had another look and from the forum page the list on the right I click the name of the chat and it takes me to another page that shows "my" time on the purple bar. So, all is fine now, thankyou.
