How to Display Event Time Zone with Event Info?

[Dawn]

Hello,
How can I display the time zone for each event? E.g., “One Event” takes place at 2pm EST and “Another Event” occurs at 8pm PST. For One Event, I want to display “EST” after the time and PST for Another Event.

Also, does this work if my WordPress install time zone is different from these? (e.g., CST)

Thank you!

Dawn,
You should be able to do this using custom fields. Go to ‘Events->Settings->Additional Fields’ and add a new Text field called ‘Timezone.’ After doing this, you should now see a new ‘Timezone’ field when adding a new event.

Here’s a great screencast that covers this feature more in-depth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1SMSvOJAzs

Just let me know if you have more questions. Thanks!

Hi,
Trying to do this, I noticed that I didn’t have the additional fields tab.
I upgraded the (no-pro) plugin, still nothing.
I noticed that the site does not have a license enabled.
I went to https://theeventscalendar.com/license-keys/ and freed up keys.
However, on the licenses tab, there is no area to enter a license.

I also tried the [check again] button under updates that is suggested in the plugin Licenses tab.
WP 3.4.1
Events Calendar PRO 2.0.2
The Events Calendar 2.0.9

thanks,
alvar

Bump?

Dawn,
Sorry you’re still having issues. You’ll need to make sure you’re running the same version of EC Pro (latest is 2.0.9, but you have 2.0.2) as The Events Calendar. Try going to your downloads page (https://theeventscalendar.com/downloads/) and seeing if you have access to version 2.0.9. If not, this means that your PRO license has expired, and you’ll need to re-purchase in order to get another year of updates & support.

Let me know if that does the trick. Thanks!
