TimeZone and UTC improvements

[antpstevens]

Is there a date/time user setting feature on the roadmap or easy way to achieve this so different users/tenants can set their own preference in this regard?

You can do your own Clock provider I guess!

Do you want tenant A uses local time, tenant B uses UTC time, tenant C uses UTC+03 time, for example?

Yes.. that’s it. Exactly the case.

Hmmm... We are thinking such a feature actually. As my thought, it should be like that:

1. We define a 'TimeZone' setting for tenant + user level (http://www.aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Setting-Management#DocSettingScopes).
2. We store all dates as UTC in the database.
3. We transfer all dates as UTC between server and client.
4. When we need to show a date, we check 'TimeZone' and adjust date to user's local time.

This sounds like what we all would need.

When can it be included in a release?

Thanks

I can not provide a release date yet. If it's urgent, you can implement it yourself as I described above.
