Post Google Calendar Time Zone Issue
I am in the Eastern time zone and recently set up a Google calendar to allow a client in the Pacific time zone to display her class schedule on her website. I created the calendar in my account and shared it with her; the intention was that she would then be able to update the calendar herself.

The events which I entered came up at the correct times, but the ones that she enters are displaying on her website as 3 hours later, even for her.

I am stumped and am hoping someone can help me resolve this problem.

Thanks!

Hey, I figured it out myself! There are two places to set the time zone: one is in the Calendar Details (which I'd done) and the other is where you customize the embeddable calendar - that's the one I missed. It seems to be fixed now!

What do you mean by "embeddable calendar"?

I am referring to when a calendar is embedded in a website, as at http://yogabydesign.net/schedules2a.htm#Classes

To edit the time zone in the embedded calendar, you go to Calendar Details then Embed this Calendar. On the very bottom left is where you set the time zone.

I hope this helps!

Thank you for your reply!

It also reminded me that I need to jump start my yoga practice

Too bad you're not in Kelowna, BC - Leslie was my instructor before she moved there and she's wonderful.
