# Time Offset

 * Is it possible to change the time offset inside this plugin somehow? I am using
   the footer widget to show upcoming classes for the current day. My server time
   is 1 hour ahead of my local time though so some of the classes are getting missed
   because it thinks the time has already passed. My shared hosting package doesn’t
   allow me to change the server time. How can I get the plugin to reference the
   correct timezone?

 * Are you seeing an offset of only an hour? Mine is showing an offset of about 
   7 hours. My server and php timezones are set to EST but the widget is showing
   HST.

 * Hi [@bpmediaworks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bpmediaworks/) and [@dljordaneku](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dljordaneku/),
   
   Thank you for your enquiries and accept apologies for a delay. Timetable plugin
   inherits a timezone indicated in your WordPress settings (Dashboard>Settings>
   General>Timezone). Try to pick a proper timezone and let us know if it’s helpful.

 * [@motopress](https://wordpress.org/support/users/motopress/) if you look at my
   site, you will see on the right side where it says On the Air. That plugin also
   is using the timezone of the system which is set to EST. I have check WordPress
   settings, set to EST, server settings, set to EST and PHP settings, also set 
   to EST.
 * When you look at the footer where it says On the Air2, this is your plugin and
   it seems to be using HST.

 * [@dljordaneku](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dljordaneku/), do you mean
   you selected UTC -5 as a timezone? If you switch timezone via WordPress dashboard
   settings is the time changed at the footer or remains the same?
    you can also
   submit a request to our [support team](https://motopress.com/support).

 * [@motopress](https://wordpress.org/support/users/motopress/), I think I found
   the issue. I had the timezone set to Louisville and not UTC-5. Same timezone 
   but I guess the plugin pulls the data differently maybe? If I set it to UTC-5,
   then it works. Of course, this is breaking another plugin. My server thinks the
   current UTC time is really EST time and that is throwing my times off. I don’t
   know if your plugin pulls the time differently based on the time zone selected
   or what but I can work through the issue from here.
 * Thanks,
    Darrell
