Display User Local Time in Content?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I was wondering if there was any simple way to place times within content (page content blocks, announcements, posts, etc.) that would use the user's time instead of a hard typed time.  Essentially instead of me having to place "5pm EST", I could just use a tag or something to place 5PM and it will factor in the user's defined timezone or simply use the forum default time for guests and display the correct time?  I mostly need this for the Pages app, so a coded solution is fine, but I am very curious if there is any sort of built in feature that I am missing.  Even for a coded solution, I am not sure how to push a time based on their account time setting vs their IP timezone.

Thank-you in advance.

That’s actually how time in IPS works by default love. It will locale your time. Super obnoxious when you are a vpn but it works. 

In the actual content of the site?  E.g. if I add "I posted this at 6:21 EST today", I  do not believe it will update to PST for west coast viewers looking at this post.  I know it will do it for system items and calendar events, but I am looking for a way to add that function into blocks on the Pages App.
