Lack of DST Option on Profiles

Post by Sotiris »

I just noticed that due to the lack of such an option (to enable daylight saving time in addition to the timezones) on our profiles (there is only an option for GMT), the time depicted on top of the forum is always wrong. Is there a way to resolve this?

The only thing I can recommend is changing the time zone to match your time. That may mean setting your profile to a time zone one hour off from yours depending on the time of year, but it's the only thing I can think of. Don't know why the software doesn't take care of that automatically.

Time question

Stupid question, but why hasn't the forum clock jumped forward because of Daylight's Saving Time (or whatever it's called)? The forum and my computer's clock were always in sync... :?
