    Baldrick,
    With the new DST dates (that went into effect on March 11th), the board no longer reflects the correct time (it is now one hour behind).

    Is there some "switch" that you have to throw?

    Since when? It has done it properly in the past. However, it may still be set to make the change on April 1st.

    Makes me want to vote for someone else.

    The changes in DST in the States has been nothing except headaches.

    A standard install doesn't, you can mofdify like Baldrick. I wasn't aware that he did.

    Interestingly, changing the time in my profile corrects the time on the Forum page, but not for the latest active list on the main page. Probably will be correct once the BB software switches on its own.

    Jim - thinks DST is a ridiculous, out-dated idea and should be abolished

  8. Jim, I edited my post so no more people change it. Baldrick has a modifed version of PHBB, it's going to switch by itself if you read his post above.

    I agree DST is a PITA....

    I did read his post.

    I'm just very "particular" about things and thus need the time to be "correct" for my location. Had to do this on a couple of other forums. And I'm sure I'll have to un-correct it on April 1.

    No worries.

    Jim
