Sunny Daylight Savings Time

Don't forget to adjust you Daylight Savings Time in your User Control Panel > Edit Options > then down the bottom to Date & Time Options

Hmm, the time thingy at the bottom of the page says "GMT +11" but the time showing for me is GMT +12.

No, I haven't updated my user CP. I didn't bother because I noticed yesterday that the forum time was already adjusted for daylight savings.

I is confused.

I made the adjustment to my Edit Options to automatically detect Daylight Savings Time. The time stamp says 9:08pm

Default Re: Daylight Savings Time

Well I have the time showing down the bottom as
All times are GMT +10. The time now is 8:29 PM.

My settings are that it doesn't automatically detect DST settings, only reason I do this is because they are not always right with the dates.

I just suggest you play around with the setting until the bottom time says as above.

Great.

I should have said that the forum time is automatically adjusted by DST. The server didn't adjust automatically, typical Windows.

Default Re: Daylight Savings Time

The problem is that we have changed the dates this year and Microsoft didn't know that at the time of your last revision, the patch is available here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

hope it helps, I spent all day arguing with my IT dept (who are in Brisbane), then just found the fix myslef.
