Recent changes to website

Post by daggers »

I am adjusting to the new system without much head scratching. Could I suggest that it should be adjusted to GMT and BST as appropriate?

This is strange, somebody else has mentioned that but it gives the time correctly on my computer.

My time was out by an hour too. I've just put it right by changing the time setting in my profile. However when I logged out the time reverted to +1 hour.

I have checked the settings, too, and think the time shown on screen varies - logged in correct, not logged in wrong!

EDIT
Just logged out and in again. The time is showing as GMT +1 when logged out, but GMT once in.

It doesn't make any difference - to change from BST and GMT (UTC?) requires a manual change - the old system was the same - dunno why.

I'll see if I can get an add on script to automatically change it.

Very happy with the time as now displayed, but not so pleased with the way the date of posting is now shown. I think it used to show day of week, which was quicker to read when glancing at the display.

This seems to be another thing which varies according to logged in/not logged in!

Happy? - You can change how the date / time is formatted in your user profile!

Happy now, thanks. The profile is something I seldom look at, but clearly should.
