Odd Clock Times

TMW - 3-18-2015 at 09:42 AM

I just noticed than when I'm logged in the clock times at 7 hours ahead of my local PT. When I'm looged out the times are 1 hour behind my local time.

I posted in Off Road at 9:36 local which showed up on the post as 4:36. When I logged off it shows 8:36.

Strange

The site has always used a default time if you're logged out. Up until recently it's been Universal Time (UTC/GMT). Since the last software update I was able to set the default to PST. It doesn't know when the time changes, and thus needs a manual update to PDT - which I just did.

When you're logged in, it uses your personal settings for time zone in relation to UTC/GMT. Sounds like your personal settings are set to UTC/GMT, not Pacific Time (or Mountain Time - which effectively is PDT).

fyi

I reset my clock to Mtn time and that shows as my local PT.

Same here, since Mountain Time is the same as Pacific Daylight Savings Time.
