Hello, I been trying to days and weeks to try to figure this out but I cant seem to. For my DB, the timezone is currently set to PST, I am trying to change the timezone to EST time. Under my current Server variables and settings it shows TimeZone PST, any help at it would be great!
I wouldn't think you could change the time unless you own the server or its a dedicated server. Its probably set for whatever time zone its in.
Oh, I post news on my site and everytime something gets posted it shows the posted time, and instead of it showing the time I posted it in my EST time zone it shows it in PST time zone. For instance it I posted something at 6PM EST Time, it will show posted 3PM EST Time. Hmm any other ideas? Thanks!
Ahhh, whatever script you are using for the site will be storing the time in the sql database by using the timestamp when the article was submitted. If you want to display a different time you need to alter the script so that it adds 3 hours to the time when the news item is sent and then it matches your time zone. Alternatively you can allow users to set their time zone preferance like this forum does.
