Clock is wrong Empty Clock is wrong

Post by squirreleater January 2nd 2008, 12:26 am

Hi, i did ask about this many months ago but had no joy.

My clock is still one hour out on my forum http://pdmc-motorcycle-club.forumotion.com/

It is saying the time is one hour ahead, i try to change it in the config page but nothing happens although it says it has changed it??

Am i doing something stupid or is it something at the server end?
Many thanks for help in advance.

It depends on the Time zone you selected. Check the time zone that matches your time. Go to admin panel=>General=>Configuration=>Configuration There look for this option "System Timezone" and choose the one that matches your current time.

admin panel => general => configuration => System Timezone click one and find the right one for you which it will have just make it one below i.e say it says 06:33 GMT + 11 Hours make it 10 hours.

Done that-lots!

Whatever i do it always is one hour ahead, even if i set it behind or head-makes no difference.

It only did it when the clocks changed back in october (uk- we move the clocks twice a year )

Weird, I'm not having such problems - I just put my clock at GMT+1 (wintertime, central European) and it's right. UK should be GMT now, no? I only started my forum a few days ago, just straddling the summer/wintertime change - put the forumtime GMT+2 before Saturday, GMT+1 after and no problems whatsoever.

edit - wait a sec! I just noticed the time on my forum was out of sync with an hour too - but then I checked my own profile preferences and they were set on GMT. I changed those to GMT+1 and now my forum gives me the proper time when I post. I did this both for my admin profile and my member profile. I use two profiles and two browsers (Flock for member and FireFox for admin) to check on different settings and userprofiles. When I create a 'secret' part in my forum, I even open up IE and check it as a guest Very Happy and yes, the guest one gives me the proper time now too!

Hope this helps Smile

So you have to set both in the admin panel and your individual profiles right . I also have been dealing with this. Thanks

try going to your profile, click preferences and scroll to the bottom, there should be a way to change your time there
