CMB2 has a couple great field types: text_datetime_timestamp_timezone (requires PHP 5.3+), select_timezone
Reference: https://github.com/WebDevStudios/CMB2/wiki/Field-Types#types

Please make the date field type be a date-time field type with support for timezones.

I did find https://wordpress.org/support/topic/time-zone-option?replies=2#post-6973974 but it wasn’t exactly what I was looking for and its styling doesn’t look good IMHO.

Hi @cliffordp

Thank you for the feedback! ACF is almost entirely maintained by Elliot Condon alone and as such he has quite a lot to do!

I can imagine that the date picker could be extended to also include time and timezones but I don’t think it can be given a high priority. There’s also the possibility to create your own field type for this like in the link you sent.

I will create a feature request for this but I can’t say when or if it’ll be implemented. Perhaps I give it a go myself at some point as I do think it’s a good extension if done right!
