Jen in PA Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I have tried messing with the daylight savings time settings, but still can't get the right time showing on the boards. What am I doing wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa in Australia Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 On the boards, do you mean the WTM board? I have never been able to get the time right. I thought it must be set for the area where the board is based. Half the time it says yesterday for me, or 3 pm when it is 9 am here in Australia.

KristinaBreece Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I *think* it always shows EST or EDT, because it always shows me the right time. But, I've been wrong before, and will certainly be wrong again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen in PA Posted March 21, 2011 Author Share Posted March 21, 2011 It's usually right for me, and I have it set to my time zone, but just today I noticed it seems to be an hour behind. I tried turning daylight savings settings on and off, but nothing changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 You want to go to your User CP, to the options menu and scroll down to the date and time settings. Choose your time zone, and daylight savings time settings are separate and must also be chosen. Mine is set to "DST always off" because we don't do it where I live--we have plenty of sunshine, no need to save it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'll have to remember to turn it off in 6 months.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
