iiTech Global Language & Timezone is a flexible and lightweight WordPress language and timezone plugin designed for websites serving a global audience.
If your visitors come from different regions or your team works across multiple timezones, accurate language and time handling is essential. This plugin gives you centralized control over WordPress locale and timezone settings — without modifying WordPress core.
Perfect for:
- International businesses
- Multilingual WordPress websites
- Event-based platforms

Core Features
✔ Unified WordPress language and timezone settings page
✔ Frontend language switcher (UI only)
✔ Visitor timezone detection using modern browser APIs
✔ Per-user admin language and timezone preferences

Unified Settings Panel
Manage everything from:
Settings Locale & Timezone
Configure:
• Site Language (WordPress locale)
• Site Timezone (uses WordPress core options)
No core modification. No external APIs. No tracking.
Per-User Overrides
Users can set preferred language and timezone in their profile.
When enabled:
• Admin UI switches using switch_to_locale()
• Admin date/time reflects user timezone
• Falls back to site defaults when not configured
Ideal for distributed teams working globally.
Visitor Timezone Detection
The plugin detects visitor timezone using the browser Intl API and stores it in a cookie.
This allows:
• Localized date and time display
• Better global user experience
• Accurate event scheduling
Shortcodes
Display timezone-aware information anywhere:
[wpltm_time datetime=”2026-02-15 10:00:00″]
[wpltm_timezone]
[wpltm_language_switcher]
Developer Functions
Available helpers:
wpltm_get_effective_timezone()
