Default Update Your PPCT Timezone!

If posts appear an hour off now that Daylight Savings Time has ended, you need to change the timezone in your PPCT account settings. Hit "Preferences" at the top, and change the Timezone field such that it's one hour "back". In my case, I changed it from GMT-4 (i.e., EDT) to GMT-5 (i.e., EST). I know you shouldn't have to do this, but unfortunately phpBB 2.0 doesn't support automatic Daylight Savings Time correction. :cry: Hopefully we'll be running a new version in the Spring that will automatically adjust when DST rolls around again.

This may be one of the few advantages to the fact that Indiana doesn't do DST either. "Time travel messes with your head."

Why people insist with messing with DST is beyond me. We know better in Arizona! :wink:

Default Daylight savings time

Finally, a good reason to live in Arizona other than the beautiful desert. We don't have to change clocks at any time.

No but football came on an hour later this morning. I liked the 10am start times.

That's odd, I'm in a DS Time Zone and didn't have to change anything.

It's possible you didn't change it back when DST started... in which case you're now showing "correct" times.
