Template:Current minute offset in time zone/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Current minute offset in time zone. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template gives the current minute offset from UTC time for the given time zone.
It can be used in conjunction with {{Current hour offset in time zone}} to calculate the current time in a particular time zone. See below for the currently supported time zones.
Usage
{{Current minute offset in time zone|time zone}}
where
- time zone is the desired time zone abbreviation (see below and also the list of time zone abbreviations);
If no time zone is given or if the given time zone is not supported, then the output will default to 0;
In this case, instead of giving a time zone, an offset (e.g. -30, 45, etc.) can also be given;
This exact offset will then be used as the output (this functionality is merely included for template compatibility).
