SOLVED RokMiniEvents3 Server timing issue reading Google Calendar

  • SOLVED RokMiniEvents3 Server timing issue reading Google Calendar

    Posted 9 years 11 months ago
    • Hi there,

      I linked RokMiniEvents3 with Google Calendar and the problem is that the time in RokMiniEvents is out by -10 hours.
      Timezones are set in Joomla and Google Calendar to Melbourne. Google shows them correctly, RokMiniEvents doesn't.
      Changes to the time zone settings in RokMiniEvents module do not change anything. Whether I force the time zone, use server setting time zone or logged in user time zone, RokMiniEvents does not change.

      You can look at www.dsm.org.au/dev/de/ . RokMiniEvents is under the RokSprocket feature second below the horizontal menu.
      Template is Rockettheme Chapelco, error reporting is set to maximum, Joomla version is 3.3.0.

      The arrow on the image below is where you can compare the timing of RokMiniEvents for the Schools open day (8-10pm here), but it should be 10am-12pm as entered and shown in Google Calendar. If you follow the link to Google Calendar you will notice the difference.

      Any hints on where to look are much appreciated.
      Thanks in advance,
      Matthias

    • Would you please create a Super Admin and place it in the SECURE part of your Reply

      I can then create a bug ticket and the devs can look at your site to see where the issue is arising.

      Thanks

    • I've created a ticket.
      In the meantime can you export your calendar in Ical form.
      Then in Notepad++ alter the times so that RokMiniEvents ends up showing the right time.
      In Google Calendar import your altered ICAL file.
      Use the URL Google creates for this calendar in your RokMiniEvents setup.

    • Hi Dan,

      I struggle with editing the iCal file to the right time. Can I track the ticket somewhere?

      Regards, Matthias
