Hi Jan,

did you find the solution to this issue? Would be great to know how you solved it.

Guys,

Not sure if relevant but I recall with Umbraco v6 surfacecontrollers when making ajax calls the language context was being lost so i had to do the following:

        protected void SetCultureForAjax()
    {
        //we lose culture and dictionary wont get labels therefore set it on the thread
        string code = _umbracoService.GetCultureCode();
        //Get the culture info of the language code
        CultureInfo culture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(code);
        Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = culture;
        Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = culture;
    }

The GetCultureCode is getting the culture set on current node. So you could maybe do something similar?

Thanks for this - I will give it a try.

For the moment though I am lucky enough to only want 1 timezone - so I currently do this to get the local time:

var tz = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("GMT Standard Time");
return TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTime(DateTime.Now, TimeZoneInfo.Local, tz);
