I had this working just fine.. and I noticed yesterday its boogered up again.

Server is in CA PST
I want Eastern time set.

on my host. i can edit php.ini which it saves in cgibin however via the host php.ini editor i can not set timezone.. so i downloaded that php.ini file and made and edit and added this

date.timezone = "America/New_York"

at 1st i thought maybe my host didnt like me doing that and removed it, so I checked its still there. however the site is showing UTC.

everything is set for NY/EST.

any ideas?

Try using this in your script to diagnose the problem and confirm what you were expecting to sss
Code:
echo date_default_timezone_get();

echo date('H:i:s');
date_default_timezone_set('UTC');
echo date_default_timezone_get();
echo date('H:i:s')


if your using PHP 5.3+ (which you probably are) you might be able to make use of these for date/time manipulation
Code:


$dateTime = new DateTime("now", new DateTimeZone('America/New_York'));
echo $dateTime->format("Y-m-d H:i:s");
 
$dateTimeZone = new DateTimeZone('UTC');
$dateTime->setTimezone($dateTimeZone);
 
echo $dateTime->format("Y-m-d H:i:s");

PHP Version is 5.2.17

ok. I made a quick script with the code in the 1st box. output below.

America/New_York23:00:54UTC04:00:54

so it looks to me as if php is rendering the time in NY/EST

now in the user info block

Server Info

Mar 04, 2012
04:01 am UTC
RN 02.50.00

So I can say for some reason nuke boogered the time. only add-on I have added is nukespam.

and I cant for the life of me think why nukespam would change everything on the site to show utc

I'm not real familiar with date formats, but the code used in that block was a carry-over from one block or another.

date('M d, Y');
date('h:i a T');

if that helps anyone Smile

What I do on my site is I put this code:

Code:


date_default_timezone_set('EST');


in my block-User_Info.php just after the

Code:


if ( !defined('BLOCK_FILE') ) {
    Header("Location: ../index.php");
    die();
}

my problem is this time issue is site wide.

any way maybe in mainfile to set time across the whole site to EST?

like I said my php.ini edits worked with nuke untill nukespam installed. (which I find really odd) but the .ini setting is working just not in nuke.

When I put it in the block-User_Info.php, it did change it site wide for me. I tried putting it in mainfile, header, config, etc. but it did nothing until I placed it in the block.

The only way I can think of that happening is if something else is overriding it with the PHP function
date_default_timezone_set();
I just did a quick global search and found it is used in modules/nukeSPAM/nukeSPAM.php around line 30 so this could bee the possible cause. You might want to comment that line out.

@ nuken - I haven't checked but that might be because the block is called after the nukeSPAM script and so it overrides it. I think ideally, you could set it in the web root index.php file (since nothing comes before that) and then comment out anything else that uses it.
I have notified kguske and a possible workaround but I have not had time to test it thoroughly as I', about to hit the sack.

If you get errors by commenting out that line, you can find your server's timezone here: [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

Just replace UTC with the correct time zone.

I'm looking at modifying the code to make it configurable or at least not default it if it's already set (thanks, Guardian, for the suggestion and for the heads up on this).

RavenNuke 2.50.00 default time zone is ('PDT'), which is three hours behind my time zone.

nuken, I tried your code using time zone ('EST'), and it worked well, but still one hour behind my time zone.

When I use my time zone ('DST'), it returns to Raven default.

I did not find my time zone here, so I guest it's not supported.

Is there any way to move the clock up an hour?

Thanks.
