We have a dedicated server in Hetzner - Germany (GMT +1) and when users login or register or.... DNN show the Germany Time to any user that be anywhere around the world.

But users don't know where is our DNN Engine location in Germany for calculating Time with their local time. for example in Tehran is (GMT +3.5) and when DNN show time for login on 08:30:00 AM, this is for germany time and the local time for user login from tehran is 11:00:00 AM.

How can Show correct local time depends User location? How can set it?

Most of displayed timestamps are converted to preferred timezone from user profile of logged in users,
For anonymous users, Default timezone of the website should be used, but in most cases it only works, if Website Default timezone equalsserver timezome.

Thank you dear sebaian for your answer

But it's my question:

1. My Server time is (GMT +1)

2. My Client User Local Time Set in Profile is (GMT +3:30)

3. Host user and Admin user also set on (GMT +3:30)

When Client User Buy something from Store on <11:00 AM (GMT +3:30)> from Online store and Admin User want to check buy time for product delivery (they should send less than 4 hours) The Buy time shown on <09:30 AM> and they think they lost 2.5 hours and their sales department be Confucius for delivery time.

What is Problem here? I have to change Server Windows Time to (GMT +3:30)? If I do it What's happen for Other clients in other countries? I have clients from Italy, Georgia, Cyprus, Canada, China, USA,.... and Need to show correct buy time to Portal Admin.

Please Help me from where place I have to Set Which Settings to Admin can see correct and exact time.

Thank you very much before...

If you are talking about a specific module, the module might not adjust Server time to user time - you should contact the vendor/developer about it.
Ideally, all timestamps should be stored in UTC and converted to usertime upon display.
