lonesome_pa Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Is it just on my end? The "official" time on the board's front page is about 1 hr 10 minutes behind. Wanted to make sure it wasn't on my end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 No...the server still needs it's time updated. Al knows about it already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Server time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 I have set the clock on the server to the correct time (it was only off by a few minutes), but this forum software does not support the concept of Daylight Savings Time. Unfortunately there is little I can do about that at the moment, and the only "fix" is for people to update their GMT settings in their profile to adjust for it. Yes, I know it's a pain in the neck, and it looks like the next version of phpbb will support DST. For instance, I just set mine to "GMT - 5 Hours" instead of the "GMT - 6 Hours" that it was previously set to. Now I see the correct time.. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? That's hard to believe. But IMO updating the profile twice a years isn't such a big problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Really? That's hard to believe. Yes, trust me, that is the case. You are free to go search the phpBB Forums for Daylight Savings Time to find the countless posts on this subject. It comes up everytime we pass a DST barrier. It looks like DST support *may* be in version 2.2 of the software, but who knows when that will be ready (and it surely will cause us tons of headaches with all the mods we've done to AA). But IMO updating the profile twice a years isn't such a big problem. No, but still annoying. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 I don't even look at the time. On a msg board like this one you can reply to a post even from 2 years ago.. so what does the time matter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Good point. These days when even toasters have clocks on them, I'm ashamed to admit that I have looked at the time here before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
