Hi, I'm in the UK, my server is in the US all posts show US time. I want it so they are in GMT.

Thanks

$timeDiff in setup_options

$timeDiff=21600;

Is that minutes?

It is always nice to ->>> RTFM <<<--

:D

lol

OK sorted the time difference. 5 hours = 18000 but nothing has changed. posts are still showing 5 hours behind local time.

oops. nevermind, forgot to remove the //

DOH!

Thanks

ok.

FYI:
I was able to go in reverse via:
$timeDiff=-54600
I needed to go backwards since my server is in Hong Kong and my site is in CA. in USA. This fixed the date being a day ahead of most of my members.

I hope this might help somebody

I want to change the time difference (I am one hour ahead of the default time).

I tried modifying it by changing //$timeDiff=25200; (I think I added one extra hour by doing this).

But it does not work.....

What am I doing wrong?

Uncomment the string (remove //)

thank you, that solved the trick!

Will it be very bad for the server and forum performance if one chooses to display a different time zone than the standard server time?

It will be not very bad, however, there are some additional resources requested. In general, what do you mean by "if one chooses to display"? We have no such setting for individual users...

Where do I change in the script... to be able to display two time zones side-by-side?

For example:

Posted: 20 Dec 2005 21:37 (18:37)

You can use parseMessage() function. Paste this in bb_plugins.php:

function parseMessage(){
$timeDiff=3600; //time difference in seconds
$GLOBALS['secondTime']=' ('.date('H:i', strtotime($GLOBALS['cols'][2])+$timeDiff).')';
return;
}

then paste in templates/main_posts_cell.html:

{$secondTime}
