Hi,

I'm aware of the "Time difference" global setting but I wonder if there is an easy way of having a different time zone for every survey.

I'm planning on running surveys in different countries, and the stats show the server time or the modified one by the "Time difference" global setting, but I would like to have each survey showing the info in their own time.

The first thought is modifying the core of the platform to add another variable per survey so set up the time zone. Then I could apply that variable when saving the data on the database or when displaying the data on the administration (probably is best the first option).

Just wondering if there is a easier solution.

Thanks.

To store timezone info, an alternative would be to store the timezone info on tokens? (if survey uses tokens).

Another alternative is to create a JavaScript that detects the timezone and later store the difference on an equation question).

Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply, I guess that solves the issue about how to store the variable, but I still have the problem of how to present the statistics according with the time zone. Or even saving the data according to the timezone.

thanks

I guess that for showing the stats with custom timezone (or saving them) you will need some development.
If you need help in that area, please let me know...

An alternative would be to dump the info to Excel and use a formula there.
But that wouldn't be much automatic.

Cheers

Something extra to add: there is a plugin event that may come handy for storing custom attributes. Please see BeforeSurveySettings and newsurveysetting. Those may help too, although development is needed.

Thanks very much for useful tips. I'm comfortable with the development.

Will let you know if I have any more questions.
