Forum's clock


I’m up here in LA and this site shows that its clock is seven hours fast if you’re not logged in. Any reason for that? It is easier to keep track of posts if the clock shows the right time without having to log in.

PS. I just noticed that if you're logged-in, the clock is one hour slow.

This is just too much to bear.

Try going to "control panel", "edit", then at the bottom of the page adjust time to GMT -7.

That should fix it.

Ken, I know your fix will work when you're logged in. But when not logged in, I think it just defaults to GMT. Or am I wrong?

I'm logged in all the time, so I can't answer that.

Does anyone really know what time it is?

sorry:rolleyes:

I repainted the face of my wall clock white. Then I painted the word now. The hands all point toward now. I try not to log into unreal time. :lol:

Apparently, the site’s administrator has no way of changing the default time settings for it.

Appropriately for an Internet site available (and read by people) worldwide, the time is GMT.

For those that choose to do so, they can create an account and have the time personalized to their location in the world.

If you're off an hour, you'll need to adjust your personalized settings. Daylight Savings Time is not recognized everywhere.

Inasmuch as this is a site almost exclusively about Baja California, accessed mostly by those living there or close by, doesn’t it make sense that the clock should show the time there instead of that half a world away, even if it is just for practical reasons? Maybe it is just me. Any thoughts?

There are two time zones in Baja. That complicates things.

peace, love, fish tacos. It's not that important is it? I showed you how to fix it on Friday and it's still an issue?

Now I understand. The default time for this site—that a user who hasn’t logged in sees—is somewhere between now and mañana.
