How do I get the time to change on my posts? My computer has updated itself to go back one hour for the time change, but on WGA, my visits and posts are still on daylight savings time.

Well, why didn’t you do that before ya stepped down? ๐
11/18/2010 at 1:24 am #1938875Sorry that I missed this. Should be fixed now.
This was not a deliberate action to make things more difficult for our members as previously suggested.Hmmm… The server time is set corrctly and to the right TZ. The correct setting in User Info is GMT +6. I don’t ever recall having to change that before. Then again, I never look at the timestamp of forum posts…
If post times are showing up an hour off, follow HP3’s instructions in the second post of this thread.

๐Thanks, huffinpuffin2! This worked. It may seem unimportant to have the time correct, but you never know when you will need an alibi. ๐
11/19/2010 at 2:22 am #1938877I have changed my preferences so that the time shows up correctly when I’m logged in. If I’m not logged in and just cruising, the time still shows up an hour ahead.
11/19/2010 at 3:10 am #1938878It’s interesting that the profile setting seems to default to a time zone that Wisconsin is not in.
