    Notification Times

    The time on the notifications seems to be 3 hours later than the time they should be. Is anyone else noticing this or should I be complianing to my host for time travelling again ?

    It seems to be sync'd for me. Is your setting correct in your profile for your time zone?

    The times show up right on the forum.
    For example: I got one for SLH's first reply to this thread:
    http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=289816
    This says SLH replied first at 3:00 but my notification says it was recieved at 6:00, which its only 4:30 here now. I admit this could be a problem with my host (which is in the US) but I thought I would see if anyone esle is seeing this before I said anything .

    Ahhhh... Okay I see what you are pointing to now. I'll look into this. This is a difference of different time zones. It may be that the notification message is not adjusting the sent/post time to the receiver's time zone.

    The value shown on the forum posts (while I said 10:xx in my previous post) will actually be the offset of GMT to your area based on the setting you have in your profile. As such, posting times will only match if we are in the same time zone.

    Just to let you know I don't know if anything got changed here but now the times are the other way round now, I just got a notification for a post that was made only a few minutes ago (12:53 here GMT on the control panel) but the email says it was sent at 03:53. Was anyone else noticing this last time as well or even now? Because I'm actually talking to my WebHost atthe moment about other email goings on and I might as well mention it if no one else is seeing this?

    Thanx,
    Paul
