Changing from Standard Time to DST on S2K

#1 Postby TheStormExpert » Mon Mar 21, 2016 8:19 pm

Does anyone know exactly how to change the time display on here from Standard Time to DST? With the redesign of this forum several months ago I seem to not be able to locate where to go.

You should be able to change it in you user control panel.

If there's a auto-change option, I don't see it. I see where you can select the current Timezone under User Control Panel >> Board Preferences >> Edit Global Settings, but you have to change it manually. Unless something happens behind the scenes?

There IS a hack/mod for it however: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/ ... _timezone/

There may be others also. I'm not we users would know if one has already been installed though.

There's no automatic setting. You need to go to the user control panel, board preferences tab, edit global settings and you can change your UTC offset for DST.
