Silly question probably, but when I read stuff without having logged in, the time (of the posts) is incorrect ie 1 hour late. However, if I log in and read or contribute, the times are accurate. Any ideas? 😬

Have you changed your daylight savings settings?

Yes I've had the same problem as well sweaty betty and in regards to your question Mandy you can't change your timezone settings unless you're logged in which I've done accordingly and I assume sweaty betty has done as well.

I guess the mods would know the answer to this minor problem.

Haven't changed my time zone setting, and haven't moved! Have just had a look at it (time zone setting) and I'm GMT + 10 hours. Is that correct for Eastern Standard Time? Also my original post was incorrect. The times are showing as 1 hour ahead, which is kind of how I noticed, as I was reading posts that were in the future.

I think you have to put it forward and backwards manually to allow for start and end of Daylight Savings. I am not sure if the admin can change the forums time themselves in the software they're using.

I just remember always having to put it forward and back myself via my own settings. Could be wrong though.
