Time and date on this forum

[HSS]

Could someone explain what time zone this forum is in. I just posted and it says the time is 4:25 am on the 8th. My clock says is 10:25 on the 7th. Maybe too much wine tonite.

I think this forum is based on Greenwich mean time which is a time standard based in England.
I hope this helps. You can goggle Greenwich mean time & get more information & a better understanding than what I can give you.

Go to your Control Panel by clicking on "Settings" on the top right hand corner of this site. On the left column click on "General Settings" under My Account. In the fourth section down you will see your Date & Time Options. You can set your time zone there & the forum will then display the time correctly for you as it does for me. All vB based forums will have this option.

If this does not work for you, please let us know so we can look into it if needed.



BTW, this should be in the SITE ANNOUNCEMENTS & ISSUES section.

Thanks for asking the question HSS, I knew it was in GMT, but I had no idea it was configurable.

Now off to change my settings...
