The server this forum lives on appears to be out by an hour:

Not particularly serious, just mildly irritating :-)

No, BST doesn't start till March 25, so I'm still on GMT which is UTC+0.

There are two places that this is set - essentially, it is compensating for GMT/BST twice. I have reconfigured this in the forum settings. This now displays correctly for me.

If it is still an hour out, you will need to disable the BST adjustment in your own profile:

User Control Panel > Board Preferences > Edit Global Settings > Summer Time/DST is in Effect > Set to 'no'

Let me know the results and if you need to change your personal profile setting or if the central changes have worked.

Thanks.

It started last night, March 12, in the US, oddly enough.

Turning off DST fixes this for me, but I'm guessing that when the UK switches to BST on the 25th it'll break again?

I will need ot see if the central setting on the boards adjusts everyones. Although I am in the UK, the site is on servers in Canada, so we will have to see what happens.

So, clocks went forwards last night in the UK. The board clock didn't adjust, so I have done this manually. Could I get feedback on whether the clock settings are showing correctly for people globally? Thanks.

UPDATE - It looks like they are.... if you adjust the settings in your control panel.

yes- works fine if you adjust the settings as you suggested.

If anyone else is unsure where to adjust this, in User Control Panel click on Board Preferences and then check yes box for Summer Time/DST is in effect.

Cheers

James
