British Summer Time

Post by spot »

We appear to have a personal clock problem this morning. The site might claim the UK is still in BST (GMT+1). We're not. The UK has entered GMT. British Summer Time is ended for the year.

If your ForumGarden time display is an hour fast, edit your profile and switch "Is DST currently in effect" to no. I have no idea how that flag's meant to work, but it didn't flip for me overnight.

It always seems to show local time to me. It seems to get the time from my system, report all time related info in my time zone.

It currently reports you local time as 2:06 PM, and my time as 8:06

That 2:06pm is GMT and it's also what my watch says, it's correct.
