Hi all,

I have just moved my forum to a US server and my members (who are in Australia) are complaining about the time which shows up different (when they post) to my forum clock (which is set to Sydney Time.

Can someone point me in the right direction on how to fix this minor problem.

Thanks for your help Island Piper.

It great to have such good members here (like yourself) that are willing to help people like me that come up with silly questions.

Keep in mind that each member can offset from whatever your forum offset is in their profile.

For example, if you set your forums offset to GMT (+0) then members could offset it to their timezone (PST+8 for my area for example)

I noted that, I recently created an archival copy of my board (any old threads are automaticly moved to that archival forum), and that user profile setting was something I missed completely and couldn't understand the time offset smile
