I've recently set up the forum and am still having problems with time display. I have read all the previous comments explaining timezones etc, and I have tried varying user timezones and forum timezones but cannot fix the problem.

I have just posted a new message on my forum, and when I look at it in the index, it tells me it was posted 1 day, 23 hours ago!

I have the forum time difference set to zero and the user time differences all set to zero, but there is a one hour time difference between the displayed forum time and the displayed message posting time, last login time, etc.

I've logged in to the host and looked directly at the SQL database and can see that the SQL server timestamp on my last login time is 1 hour ahead, and is the correct date, but the server is obviously set in a different time zone.

But why the difference between the displayed forum time and the displayed login time when I am looking at them both from within the forum, and why does it say 1day23hours ago? I don't want to change the forum time as it is currently showing the correct time for all the users in my time zone, and I don't want to change everyone's individual time offset as that would make the forum time display incorrectly.

Please, can anyone help?
