Daylight saving time

Postby Neil Fitzgerald » Thu Apr 08, 2010 8:20 pm

With the end of DST in NZ last weekend you might have found the time on the board (e.g. on posts, last logged in time etc) is now wrong. The forum gets its time from the server it runs on, not your computer (which probably changed automatically), so all you need to do is go to your User Control Panel, click on the Board Preferences tab, then change "Summer Time/DST is in effect" to "No", then the Submit button. As long as "My timezone" is set correctly (UTC + 12 in NZ) all the times on the board should be in your local time.

Cheers,
Neil.

It's daylight saving time again, so remember to check you smoke alarms, and set the time in your User Control Panel
