How can I display a users LOCAL TIME in their profile and pop-up profile?

I'd like to give visibility to what time zone people are in.  If I see content or see that someone is at their desk w/ the Spark plugin, and want to call them I will know what their local time is.

 

This would be great to have in the popup window you get when you mouse over profile, right underneath the Spark inidicator "online, available".

 

using SBS 3.0.6

Re: How can I display a users LOCAL TIME in their profile and pop-up profile?

Hello,

 

I'm not aware of the Spark plugin, would you give me a link to the location where you found this plugin?

 

One suggestion that I do have for your time zone issue is to use profile fields.  You can add custom profile fields in the Admin Console under People > Settings > Profile and Homepage.  You can make them required if you like so that all members will have them.  You might have the new field added automatically to the pop-up profile as well.  Even if it doesn't add the field automatically, it'll probably be much easier to get the field and add it to the pop-up profile with a customization if you make a profile field for it.  I hope that helps, and let me know if you have anymore questions.

 

Thanks,

Kevin
