How to Change User Timezone in Calendar

Hi everyone,

We’re running an OnlyOffice server from Docker containers, and I’ve run into an issue with timezones. Our server is set to PST, but we have a user in EST. While OnlyOffice seems to pick up the computer’s timezone for the current time and display the user’s time next to the red line on the calendar, all events and calendar entries remain in PST.

Technically, everything works, notifications are given at the correct time,etc., but it’s quite frustrating for the user. They constantly have to do mental math to adjust the event times, making scheduling unnecessarily complicated. Additionally, all of their emails are have PST timestamps.

I’ve searched through the documentation, forums, and the internet, but I haven’t found a way to change the calendar timezone for a specific user.

Is there a way to change all the times in OnlyOffice to the users time, or somehow set the timezone for individual users in OnlyOffice? I would love to adjust OnlyOffice to the user so that everything in it is in their time, instead of the user to do everything in server’s timezone.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello @gokay

Please specify version of the portal. You can find by opening About this program page from the avatar of your profile.

Also, please let me know if you are sharing your calendars with full access or in read-only mode.

Hi @bal3nar,

I am running version 12.7.1.1942.

We have OnlyOffice calendars that are shared with full access. The user has their own calendar and shared OnlyOffice calendars with read/write access. They also have outside calendars, e.g. from Google, that are read-only.

Thanks for your help, and let me know if there is anything else you need from me.

Thank you for the reply. User can change time-zone by clicking the pencil to the right of the calendar on the left toolbar in the Time Zone drop-down menu.
