Meeting Mod Time

[raqman1]

Hi Oxpus,
Have tried reading through the site, but my German is pretty rusty, so have seen the topic mentioned aready and cannot understand, so hope you can help.

I have your meeting Mod on my website, which is heavily used and is fantastic, but I have a problem with the Time, if someone puts 6pm then save, it automatically shows 5pm, do you know why this is happening.

I was on version 1.3.13 (which I read shoud have resolved this problem) and recently upgraded to 1.3.16 but this did not fix the problem.

Any help will be apprieciated.

Regards

Please check your profile specially for summer-/wintertime.
The MOD regards the current timezone inclusive the DST-Flag.
I've no more errors with this...

But you can test it:
Open the file meeting_manage.php, replace "mktime" with "gmmktime" and retry.
"gmmktime" will regard the timezone, mktime will not, but for displaying the time, the timezone will be used, too...

Hi Oxpus,
Thanks for the reply!

OK I can see the problem is due to the users and their GMT status, but as I have many users with different time zones, it causes confusion, as they do not adjust to DST, so some people see an event for 6pm and some see the same event for 7pm :-(

Is there a way to just put the time, without it looking at a users profile timezone?

Thanks a million!

The MOD MUST look for the users timezone to correct the time!
The same method like the phpBB will do it e. g. for the post times

But will my fix solve your problem or not?

Hi Oxpus,

I am afraid not, it did not make any difference.

Is there no way we can make meeting mod look at the time of the server and the GMT settings of the forum and not individual users?

That would solve the problem I think.

Thanks

[oxpus]

the GMT settings of the forum

This are the individual timezones from the userprofiles

But you can delete

Code: Alles auswählen

, date('I')

from the meeting_manage.php to retry the next step...

WOW!!!! That seems to have fixed it, excellent, no more complaints fom my users.....

Many thanks Oxpus

Courious.
Then the DST Flag will not work for you...


Okay...

changed back to mk instead of gmm, as gmm was giving errors
