Incorrect timezone

The time for Hawaii is incorrect - is displays one hour earlier then what is correct

Is is this for the whole forum or just your profile?

by OahuBeachGirl January 11th 2014, 9:54 pm

It is for all the forums I visit for my profile. Like here, I have it set in my preferences to be Hawaii time zone, but it shows all the post time stamps one hour earlier.

I believe a few of the timezones are a little off, for example Argentina is an hour ahead. I believe the techs are aware of this and other timezones being incorrect but there had been no word on when an update will be provided.

Ok thanks! I hope they can correct it soon. As an admin it is important to know when things are actually posted for contests and such

You could tell you members to exactly post the correct time in the their posts for contests.

Can we consider this solved now?

Hello

Could you please give the url of your forum ?

Thanks

It's on all forumotion forums, not just mine. Even here, if I go into my preferences it shows this:

Incorrect timezone Image110

and aside from it being a problem with contests, it's just annoying and should be easily fixed.

No, I do not consider that a fix since it is a problem on all forumotion boards.

Please try not to double post in the future. Your posts need to be separated by a 24-hour period. Use the edit button instead.

my forum is http://www.graphicgroupies.com/ but like I said - it is wrong on ALL forums, even this one!

Well when Forumotion changed the system that was being used I believe last year, some time information was not correct. I do not know if the techs fixed them yet.

Buttercup, you could probably link this issue with a previously reported issue, and still unresolved for Western Australia, as we like the EU have many different time zones when it comes to DST - 1 state doesn't even have it Shocked
