Server Time

I think I've asked before but can't remember.

People can change the time in the forums, but how on earth do you get the right time to show on the rest of the site.

Statistics show up on my site in US time.

Here's my problem, my sites in the UK my servers in the US.

So common sense tells me that I can't change the server time for the rest of the site, right?

You are correct in your understanding. However, I picked this up in my travels and don't know for sure if it still works. Replace your function in mainfile.php with this one. Note the -15 ? That is the number of hours to offset. Let us know if this still works (or ever did Laughing

)

Before I even look at the PM, you need to make the overflow lines 1 long line. Try that. In other words, lines 4 and 5 should be one line and lines 6 and 7 should be one line.

Thanks Raven, I tried again without wordwrap on lol
and it still doesnt work.

The time here now is 18.31 and the hourly stats are showing 13.00 - 13.59

We're about 5hrs ahead of the server time, so the stats are always out. Sad

I've replaced my original mainfile now ............. sob!
