The times are all messed up - Zack - 04-28-2004

They're all an hour earlier than the actual time.
I'm set to my time zone, GMT-5, but perhaps the problem is that phpBB doesn't take into account Daylight Saving's Time? (we push our clocks an hour forward in early spring)

I noticed the same problem on all phpbb boards. Maybe even some vbulletin ones also.

Just change your time in your profile Tongue

DST is recognised in phpBB 2.2, but not in 2.0.

Okelie, thanks for the solution.
Bluffer: GMT is Grenwich Mean Time. It's the current time in England. So if I'm in Toronto, England time is ahead 5 hours - so I'm behind 5. Hence the GMT-5.
Oh yeah, Oracle: how about upgrading it to 2.2?
