World Timezones on indexpage

[Mas*Mind]

This hack puts a list of the worldtimezones on your index page, instructions and needed files are in the attached zipfile..

Currently there's no demo so if someone has installed it, plz add a link to it...

I've not tested it thoroughly but it seems to be working well..

enjoy :)

I've coded all timezones very quickly, but if you wanna change it, just edit:

$timezones[-12] = "Eniwetok, Kwajalein";
$timezones[-11] = "Midway Island, Samoa";
$timezones[-10] = "Hawaii";
$timezones[-9] = "Alaska";
$timezones[-8] = "Pacific Time (US & Canada)";
$timezones[-7] = "Mountain Time (US & Canada)";
$timezones[-6] = "Central Time (US & Canada), Mexico City";
$timezones[-5] = "Eastern Time (US & Canada)";
$timezones[-4] = "Atlantic Time (Canada)";
$timezones[-3] = "Brazil, Buenos Aires, Georgetown";
$timezones[-2] = "Mid-Atlantic";
$timezones[-1] = "Azores, Cape Verde Islands";
$timezones[0] = "London, UK";
$timezones[1] = "Amsterdam, Netherlands";
$timezones[2] = "Kaliningrad, South Africa";
$timezones[3] = "Baghdad, Kuwait";
$timezones[4] = "Tehran";
$timezones[5] = "Ekaterinburg, Islamabad";
$timezones[6] = "Almaty, Dhaka";
$timezones[7] = "Bangkok, Hanoi";
$timezones[8] = "Beijing, Perth, Singapore, Hongkong";
$timezones[9] = "Tokyo, Seoul, Osaka";
$timezones[10] = "Guam, Papua New Guinea";
$timezones[11] = "Magadan, Solomon Islands";
$timezones[12] = "Auckland, Wellington, Fiji";

To reflect the correct zones...You can move some array-elements if you don't wanna display them...

Now that's what I call quick service. :)

Thanks!

came out strange for some reason ?

http://animeboards.com/tzindex.php

Don't see anything from my hack on that page :confused:

It looks a bit funny though..

yeah i know i have no idea of what included that :confused:

You really mean the installation of my hack included that funny timezone utility? Mabye you have to rename timezone.php to something else (don't forget to change the reference to include("timezone.php"); in index.php also..)

Great hack:D:D
Thanx m8....

The only reason that *might* explain it is that you maybe have an existing timezone.php in your php include-dir?

Looks good, only the image is broken...

You can change the number of columns if you want btw...($percol in timezone.php)

is that number of rows or columns ?

The image is linked to images/.gif ... no image name, comes up with a red X.

anyway i removed the image as it servers no purpose :)

my bad; I referrenced to $onoff.gif in the timezonelist-template...

It probably doesn't work for use because we had no cookie set...

Excellent hack. :) I didn't have time to get started on it and already you released it! :D

How do u change the default time is now?

I tried changing the $i= variable but no dice.

What do you mean? You shouldn't touch the $i variable, it's used for other purposes...

The script makes use of you configurations timezone offset (the one in your cp-general settings), so if you set that right all times should be displayed correctly

eva2000, can you please post your timezones for me? as i am from Australia as well, Sydney to be exact

You don't have to modify anything as long if you configured the timezoneoffset in your controlpanel (general settings) right...

You didn't follow the instructions properly...

timezone.php isn't a standalone script, but needs to be included in the index.php

re-read the instructions plz

[bokhalifa]

how does it look like now then? (the template)

[almighty one]

Originally posted by Mas*Mind

well to split it and make the time post under the cities looks as if ya put another <br> inbetween but how can i make the time post in a color or the cities post in another color also is it possable to make them post in a table type border where as the cities match the 1st alt color and the time posts ina table color to the 2nd alt color

[Mas*Mind]

You could do something like this:

<table>
<tr>
<td><smallfont><b>$cities</b></smallfont></td>
<td><smallfont color="{ timecolor }">$datetime</smallfont></td>
</tr>
</table>

(remove the spaces between { timecolor })

[almighty one]

thanx will try that didnt divide it into table oh well no biggie ill live with it as it is

[Mas*Mind]

what do you want exactly then? Anything is possible with the templates...as long as you know howto code html...

[almighty one]

well like in the actaul vbb ya have 2 alt colors and it is tabled across the screen like you have the little box with the vb_bullet.gif that has 1st alt color then ya got the forum name 2nd alt color then ya got #posts 1st alt color then ya got #views 2nd alt color etc etc i would like mt cities to be in 1st alt color and the times to be in 2nd alt color to kinda match the forums

[Mas*Mind]

try this (untested, don't use the hack myself actually)

timezone_city_col:

<td valign="top"><table>$citycol</table></td>

timezone_city:

<tr>
<td bgcolor="{ firstaltcolor }"><smallfont><b>$cities</b></smallfont></td>
<td bgcolor="{ secondaltcolor }"><smallfont color="{ timecolor }">$datetime</smallfont></td>
</tr>

Remove the spaces out of the { blabla } variables

[almighty one]

yes yes it worked thanx alot :)

[Christian]

One question:

Is it possible to have/make more than one entry for a certain timezone?

[Mas*Mind]

what do you mean exactly?

[Christian]

For example:


$timezones[-3] = "Brasilia";
$timezones[-3] = "Buenos Aires, Georgetown";
$timezones[-2] = "Mid-Atlantic";
$timezones[-1] = "Azores, Cape Verde Islands";
$timezones[0] = "Casablanca, Monrovia";
$timezones[0] = "Greenwich Mean Time: Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London";
$timezones[1] = "Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern, Rome. Stockholm, Vienna";
$timezones[1] = "Belgrade, Bratislava, Budapest, Ljubljana, Prague";
$timezones[1] = "Brussels, Copenhagen, Madrid, Paris, Vilnius";
$timezones[1] = "Sarajevo, Skopje, Sofija, Warsaw, Zagreb";
$timezones[1] = "West-Central Africa";
$timezones[2] = "Athens, Istanbul, Minsk";
$timezones[2] = "Bucharest";
$timezones[2] = "Cairo";



It only reads out one entry!

I'm not 100% familiar with PHP yet!
Does the [x] mean that $timezones is an array?

[orca]

Great hack, worked like a charm.

[Wolverine]

Now all you have to do is link the timezones to the "who's online" feature.

:)

[JJR512]

The time zone 0, the one with London, should not say Greenwich Mean Time. Even though London is in the same time zone as GMT, they are not always the same time. That's because London, in fact all of England, go on Daylight Savings Time, but Greenwich does not. GMT is the same all year round, but the actual time in that time zone may actually be GMT+1 when on DST. (Yes, oddly enough, that means that during part of the year, even Greenwich itself is GMT+1!)

I think this whole thing about GMT not going on DST while the time zone does is very confusing to many people, and actually leads to some errors in vBulletin. For example, right now on my board, my time zone offset is -5, and the board tells "all times are GMT -5 hours". But that's not true. Right now, my time is GMT -4 hours. My time zone, Eastern Time, is on DST. On standard time, ET is GMT -5, but when ET is on DST, it's GMT -4. Now compared to the actual time in England, I am -5 hours. But not compared to GMT.

Is this making sense?

Yep, it's an array; So you can't do that I'm affraid... Maybe I'll work on it...

[Christian]

Perhaps a for loop in a for loop would do it!

In JAVA it would be no prob for me!


for (i=... ; i<=timezones[].length; i++)
{
for (j=0; j<=timeszones[i].length, j++)
{
.
.
.



is that possible with PHP also?

[eva2000]

still works with VB 2 final :D

Yes I upgraded to 2.03 and then installed the hack - works well, though a tip: change the col var from 13 to 5 looks neat.

[j_lorence]

Is there anyway I can edit it to where i can show countries in the same timezone, but on seperate lines? Like say for instance i live in Missouri which is Central Time, and Mexico City is also Central Time. But the only way i can show them both is if i put them on the same line like this ...

$timezones[-6] = "Missouri, Mexico City";

I tried putting...

$timezones[-6] = "Missouri";
$timezones[-6] = "Mexico City";

but it would only show one of them. Any ideas?

[Admin]

I installed it, works great. Good job! :)

But how can I modify this to have it pop up when I click on something?
Kinda like the 'Who Posted?' stuff.

[Admin]

Anyone came up with a way?

[Admin]

There's a little bug I just found out.

The template timezonelist contains
<img src="{images}/$lightbulb.gif" alt="">
The problem is when you are not logged in, the image is broken ($lightbulb is not defined).

So what I did is just changed it to
<img src="{images}/clock.gif" alt="">
(When clock.gif is a little image I did with a world and a clock)

I'm using v2.0.3, so I'm not sure if this is also a problem on earlier versions. :rolleyes:

EDIT: Just saw that this is mentioned before. :p Sorry. :(

[centris]

Ah the Lightbulb bug, this one had me stumped for a while he he

<img src="{imagesfolder}/on.gif" alt=""></td>

This is what I did, )always on (as the calculation of the time is)

[handheld234]

This hack looks great [saw it on another site]. I think though it doesn't account for daylight savings time [like the US Pacific Time] May need to manually adjust for that???. Also, has anyone been able to put it somewhere else on a page outside of the forum tables???

I would just like to add a tiny table with 6 or so timezones in it at another spot on my page.

Thanks.

[handheld234]

I'm going to try this but instead of putting the times in the main table I am going to try to stick it in the footer instead by sticking $timezonelist down there. Will see what happens...

[handheld234]

Doesn't work in the footer. Nothing came up.

[TheComputerGuy]

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: gettemplate() in /home/moneytec/public_html/forums/timezone.php on line 39

$i=0;

while(list($timediff, $cities)=each($timezones))
{ $i++;
$servertime = $timeoffset - $timediff;
$timestamp = mktime (date("H")-$servertime, date("i"), date("s"), date("m"), date("d"), date("Y"));
$datetime = date($dateformat, $timestamp);
eval("\$citycol .= \"".gettemplate('timezone_city')."\";");
if($i % $percol == 0)

unset($citycol);
}
}

if($i % $percol != 0)
eval("\$cityzones .= \"".gettemplate('timezone_city_col')."\";");

eval("\$timezonelist .= \"".gettemplate('timezonelist')."\";");

?>



That is the code in the part



$dateformat = "l H:i";
$percol = 13;



Can I change the Colums to 3 Colums instead of only 2 of them. Thansk if you can help me with that one.

[chacho]

TO change those 2 Colums to 3 Colums I just have to do some Math. LOL your colums are 13 in each, so there were 2 colums that ADD to 26, my aproximation was 26/3 give me a uneven number. I just put 9 It looks just the way I want it and now I have 3 Colums. Again Awesome hack. If you want to have 3 colums intead of 2 just change this


in timezone.php


Find:


$dateformat = "l H:i";
$percol = 13;




Change it to this



$dateformat = "l H:i";
$percol = 9;





Thanks very much For this Hack, now it looks just the way I wanted. You the Man!!!!!!!!!!

I was informed that the times for Tokyo, Seoul, Osaka are out by a hour, I not sure if this is right but I have adjusted and added Melbourne and Sydney time that are correct at the moment.
Just change this in the timezone.php

Nice hack! Just installed it on vBulletin 2.2.1!

Click here to see it in action (http://www.somesite.com/community/)

The first step in index.php just is not quite the same as previous versions but if you just add: timezonelist,timezone_city,timezone_city_col';

to that line and follow the other steps, it works fine...

This works with 2.2.2 no problem, I changed two of the templates to get the effect below. I also sorted the error with the .gif image but you will need to check your own path and choice of image.

Changes to index.php 2.2.2 make the top of the script like this;

<?php
error_reporting(7);

$templatesused='forumhome_birthdaybit,error_noperm ission,forumhome_pmloggedin,fo rumhome_welcometext,forumhome_logoutcode,forumhome _newposts,forumhome_todayposts ,forumhome_logincode,forumhome_loggedinuser,forumh ome_loggedinusers,forumhome_la stpostby,forumhome_moderator,forumhome_forumbit_le vel1_nopost,forumhome_forumbit _level1_post,forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost,foru mhome_forumbit_level2_post,for umhome,forumhome_unregmessage,timezonelist,timezon e_city,timezone_city_col';
$loadbirthdays=1;
$loadmaxusers=1;

Change Timezone.php to this;

<?php

$dateformat = "l h:i A";
$percol = 5;

Templates;

timezone_city
<smallfont><b>$cities</b> <font color={timecolor}>$datetime</smallfont><br>

timezonelist

Not quite a pop-up, but some time back I modified this as a stand-alone page with a link on the main page.

World Times Page (http://www.tekkenzaibatsu.com/forums/worldtimes.php)

If you were actually logged in the colored globe indicates your time zone and I also added this page to Who's Online tracking. If that will do instead of the requested pop-up I can document it properly.

Wow, that's very cool, Castel!

Would it be too much trouble to document how to do that hack, please?

[Snake~eyes]

Yes! that'll work :D
i like that.

Could you explain how?

Great hack! Installed nice and easy.

There's only one thing I can't figure out is a small format thing. The hack works perfectly, but I'd like to figure out a way to alternate colors between country/timezone. In other words, "Eniwetok, Kwajalein = color 1" and "Midway Island, Samoa = color 2."

Anyone figure out a way to do this?

One of my users like this option, so I tinkered with it a bit. And have it working with VB3 Gold. There was a couple of things I haven't had time to play with, but it's still very functional.

Good Luck

Hi grandma. First off I want to thank you for taking the time to do this. Thank you!!!

When I tried it I got an error. Most likely something I did wrong, but I am hoping you could guide me in the right direction. :)

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: gettemplate() in /home/divaorg/public_html/forum/worldtimes.php on line 49

Did you use the worldtime.txt.php I posted? Just rename it to worldtime.php and use it.

VB3 doesn't support the gettemplate function in your error. That was the original worldtimes file.

Hope that helps

Hi. I have the page up and running... but the time zones are wrong. Unfortunately I dont know how to correct this. Could someone give me a hand? Thanks bunches!

Edit the php file to fit your needs.

For example:

$timezones[-10] = "Honolulu, Chatham Island, Papeete, Tahiti, Cook Islands";
$timezones[-9] = "Anchorage,Juneau";
$timezones[-8] = "Los Angeles, Seattle, San Fransisco, Vancouver";
$timezones[-7] = "Denver, Phoenix, Edmonton, Aklavik";

all times in the brackets are relative to GMT. You can also change anything within the quotes.

I'm sorry to be a pest, but do you mean to change the [-8] to [6] to get the correct time? Here is my World Times Page (http://www.nochicktrix.org/forums/worldtimes.php). As you can see, the time is off by 2 hours. My forum time is correct.

Change this line (in worldtimes.php):

$servertime = ($timeoffset - ($timediff+5));

to this:

$servertime = ($timeoffset - ($timediff+7));

Do I really need to create 5 new remplates?
Can't this be done another way?
