The time for my last post was one hour ahead of the actual time here in New Zealand.
Daylight savings do not come into effect until beginning of Summer.

I have gone into 'Your Panel' and changed the timezone to GMT +12 and also ticked Daylight Savings.

This is being posted @ 11.14 am NZ GMT +12
I think I have figured it. I thought that we just ticked Adjust for Daylight Savings time and the BBS would take care of the timezones. I now know that we have to manually adjust that ourselves. I suppose its a bad habit we get into expecting time to be adjusted automagically  Soon as I took the tick out in "Your Panel' time corrected itself. « Last edit by sighkick on Mon Sep 19, 2005 11:19 pm. » |

Well indeed you should check it when DST is in effect.
Marking as invalid. |

Unfortunately I live in a country that uses Daylight Savings Time.
Personally I think it is a bit much to ask all of the members to manually change this when daylight savings time changes since it is something that could be built-in. Maybe in the 2.x code? Thanks, -Mark |

Me too, but DST settings are very different over various countries.
