StarWest Usability - Safety Kit Distribution Weekend - Add Time Zone change #2151

Open userstar00 opened 7 years ago

userstar00 commented 7 years ago

When logged in as a user under Safety Kit Distribution Weekend, allow for changing the time zone under the title and for the task descriptions. This accounts for people wanting to help from other locations. Understanding when and where they need to be.

This is a great suggestion for down the road. For the time being we'll leave this as-is, though, as we can work under the assumption that folks should know that if they're jumping timezones that they will have to adjust times.

One other approach to this would be to let folks to set their own timezone on their profile. This would allow them to see everything on the site in their own timezone, when it differs from that of the event. There should also be a moniker that denotes the original time/zone.

I think a combination of storing dates via nodeatime and then adding moment.js might be a good option here.
