Hello,
I have the following settings on a new fresh DNN 4.4.1 install:
My website is hosted in USA (UTC-5), on a shared hosting plan
I am living in France (UTC+1)
The Site Settings / Portal Time Zone is set to UTC-5
The time zone of my user is set to UTC+1
When I look to the sitelog, time hour are UTC-5 (hosting time)
When I look user account, last activity date, time hour are UTC-5 (hosting time)
When I edit an 'annoucement' (core module) @ 10h00 local time, I have the information: last updated @ 04h00 (hosting time)
When I upload a file into the repository @ 10h00 local time, the date stamp which is displayed is: 04h00 (hosting time)
Same with other modules like Ventrian news article showing "hosting time" (date of creation or update), etc...
Why ??? Did I make a mistake in my settings ? Where is the problem ? Did I miss a parameter somewhere ??
Normally, I would expect the annoucement module, repository module and others module to show the local time.
Is there a trick, something I do not understand, a bad setting, a normal feature ??? I have tried to change the site settings / portal time zone to UTC+1, it does not change anything, the hour displayed are still hosting time!! I have checked in the database, table dbo.portals, and it seems it is correct (TimeZoneOffset = -300)...
Thanks for your help,
DV FX
PS: On my website, I have not tested forum, but in this forum, the time stamp is correct (it displays my local hour...)
Is it the only module to take into account local time ??
