I dunno -- what time did you leave your message? For me, it's showing 9:18 PM, and I'm in the Eastern time zone.

Our options say DST is enabled. Let's see when this posts -- it's 11:57 pm EDT on my clock here at home.
Edit: Yep, it's still showing EST. Not sure how to fix that.

According to the display I see, your message was posted at 11:56 PM.

This all gets very confusing. VB’s DST works, but there could be a problem with host servers. Our host for DTP always gets it wrong and takes about three hours to fix it!

Let’s see when this message posts. I am typing at 9:56 AM EDT.

Edit: And so it shows.

FWIW, I noticed that the server did not kick to DST on March 11. As I type this, it is currently 10:32am EDT, but the web page is showing 09:32AM.

Not on my computer. It may be affected by individual settings (though it shouldn't be).

It's still an hour behind and I have no clue how to change it. Sigh... this is exactly the kind of question our dear Gary would have loved...

I think I found the answer, at least temporarily. In your UserCP options, change your DST Correction Option to always on.

Aha! User CP issue.

Apparently. I changed my settings to Always On for DST and it's now the right time. But I fear that it may be necessary to change them again when the "real" DST begins for the rest of the world, since everything is fixed by reference to GMT.


All times are GMT -5. The time now is 11:15 AM.
