Significant error in local time


JRG

Recommended Posts

"User's local time" is out badly (+8 hours). I don't know if this is just for my country or others as well (haven't gone around checking).

 

The example is my Id. My country is correctly listed as Costa Rica.

 

My local time was shown as March 21, 04:45

 

The actual time was March 20, 20:45

 

I'm not sure this really matters to anyone, but it is misleading.

Ouch, I feel like an idiot!

 

I had only briefly looked at the profile settings -- I completely missed the "Board options" which has a place for timezone. It should have been glaringly obvious that "country" would not be enough to compute time zone from (many countries having multiple time zones).

 

Thanks for waking me up Gerardo!
