Discord Local Time Generator - MAVEN
DiscordLocal Time Generator Discord is the place for our communities. But, while we’re all running awesome events and creating unmatched experiences for our communities, it’s difficult for people in them to know exactly when something is happening. Communities are global, so we’re constantly converting time into our local time zones. Well, this ...
Please excuse the unexpected ping, @Tatiana . I saw some chatter re "what time zone" for the post re the Zoom call (ref: https://discord.com/channels/1087530497313357884/1098765954302873621/1240007747890708540). Using Discord's time-stamp feature can really help users navigate past those questions.
Granted, they could also just go to the shared Google Calendar. But at least one stated they had hesitation doing so because of login needs (or some-such).
Again: sorry for the unexpected ping. Just trying to help. ❤️
So relative to your Announcement, the line:
Could be changed to:
Which renders as:
Please join us on <t:1716224400> (your local time), Zoom info - ID: 89417554201, Password: 838729,
And I do not know your timezone, but mine is US Mountain Time (Colorado), so that post appeared like the attached pic in my Discord app. Of course, the time may show differently for you, depending on your timezone.
Wow, looks like a great feature
Thank you for your suggestion @bunny! The announcement now shows local time.
