Sorry if this was brought up elsewhere. Just started using this app and noticed that you have a link to wikipedia for timezones - could you just put that into a dropdown list for the user to select from?

That could certainly be possible, but must be done correctly. The timezone library module has its own version and sources for acceptable time zones. This can change with versions and time, so a hardcoded list is probably not clever.

I think the best approach would be to allow Wrapperr to retrieve the current allowed list of time zones from it's own API and let the users pick from the list in the frontend.

That would be a better user experience, thank you for your suggestion.

I would suggest at least changing the label to say "Timezone Abbreviation," or something similar. It's not immediately obvious what you're supposed to put in that box.

I still can't figure out what the proper format for this field is. Perhaps a template/example could also be included in the label.
In the meantime, what is the proper format? (e.g. I am in Central US timezone)
Edit: I found it from the reddit post, "America/Chicago"

@alex-cardenas IIRC it should be America/Chicago for you.

Fixed in v3.2.0.
