Connections Business Directory Local Time Plugin

Connections Business Directory Local Time extension is a remix of the fantastic jClocksGMT World Clocks plugin
that has been custom tailored for use with Connections Business Directory.

How does it work?

The local time zone is calculated from the latitude/longitude of either the first or preferred address from the entry in Connections Business Directory.
The latitude/longitude is then used to determine the time zone and the UTC offset in which the address is located using the Google Maps Time Zone API.

With that information determined automagically, a clock is displayed in the the theme’s sidebar showing the local time of the
current entry being viewed.

Features:

• Automagically determines time zone and UTC offset using the latitude/longitude of either the first or preferred address from the entry being viewed.
• Customizable widget.
• Analog clock with 5 skin variations.
• Digital clock with custom time formatting.
• Display the local date with custom date formatting.
