This is a little utility element I built to support my forthcoming set of Server-Side Action plugins. All this little guy does is return the browser’s Timezone and Locale information, so you can do fetch the user’s Timezone ID and language preferences dynamically. Useful for a variety of things aro…

Hey @reger-alexander ! That makes the job done, thank you so much! It’s a bit meeeeh that the user has to experience a refresh when his language is different from the app’s default one (English in case of my app) after having spend almost 1 second on page. That could lead to a bad UX that could have …

Hi, @keith Is this plugin working now? It seems that the plugin can not detect the Locale(language setting) for now. It used to be perfectly fine until recently. Rio

Hey @keith , same issue than @rio ; The Locale doesn’t work. It’s showing as “numeric” like the date formats: [07]

Hi @julienallard1 (also @rio ): This is apparently a bug in the Bubble plugin editor (which has surely broken many simple plugins). I’ve fixed the issue for Browser Timezone and Locale by moving state publishing up to the code initialize level, instead of relying on Bubble’s “state initialization” ro…

Just published Browser Timezone and Locale v 1.2.0. This version adds 2 new outputs which give the browser’s current timezone offset in hours and minutes: [image] Runtime: [image] As a reminder, I work for tips. You can tip me here: [image] GRUPZ: KarmaWare for Bubble Developers G…

@keith , This is great, thanks for adding it! Quick question: Are all offset values supposed to be positive? Example: I’m in the “America/New_York (-4)” time zone and it’s returning “4” for the offset (hours) value.

Is there not a note about this in the plugin interface? Anyway, from the docs for getTimezoneOffset: The time-zone offset is the difference, in minutes, from local time to UTC. Note that this means that the offset is positive if the local timezone is behind UTC, and negative if it is ahead. For…
