Back from British Summer Time to GMT

Postby Hugh-AR » 30 Oct 2018 09:26

We are back to GMT from British Summer Time. But I when I did a post in the TDP Forum I realised that the Forum was still on BST. It was not 2am (but it was 1am)! Even that's late for me (or should I say early?).

So this morning I have been into the Admin pages and 'unticked' the BST option. But there is also a BST option in your Profile. So if you want the time on your posts to show correctly (and you may not be bothered) ...

Click on Control Panel (at the top).
Click on the tab Board Preferences (at the top)
Scroll down to Summer Time/DST is in effect. It should be on No. If it's on Yes, then change it to No and click on Submit at the bottom.

Incidentally, if you do not live in UK, then you can set the Forum to show your correct time by changing My timezone: (click on the down-arrow and choose your region).

Please do not change any of the other parameters. We need these on the 'default' values for the Forum to run as it should.

Below are the 'default' values on my Profile .. and yours should be set the same.
