BARF is ahead of its time

If you go to "UserCP" in the band near the top and click on "Edit Options", you can check the time zone it has for you in the "Date & Time Options". Mine is set to Mountain, because that's the time zone that I live in now.

What is yours set to?

Yeah I know about the User CP options. I'm set to the default Pacific time with auto detect of DST. I did try Eastern Australia time as well but that's still an hour off.

The bottom of every BARF page says "All times are GMT -7" which is wrong, right now it should be GMT-8.

But did you check the time in Greenwich, England?

My guess is that it has something to do with the way time shifts with the seasons and you being in the southern hemisphere....but that's just a guess.

Not seeing that option in the User CP.

You're not experiencing this bug?
Here in AZ, I touched nothing and the forum time is correct to the minute in AZ time. I don't recall checking it when I was in CA.

I see it as "Western Europe, London" with a 0 hr offset. Same as GMT (Greenwich is a borough of Greater London). BTW, I have been there in Greenwich, right on the line, in Nov 2000. But the line they painted is a few yards off. My GPS says it was really in the parking lot, and I believe my GPS. The actual location can drift a few feet over the years.

Time right now should be 0544 in London. And the forum time agrees. I just changed to GMT here as that is what I use for ham radio and I am used to it.

Setting "DST corrections always off" seems to fix my issue, at least for now. Using California time.
