Arrow Daylight Savings settings on the forum.

Disregard this if you reside in a country that does not observe DST, or one of the following US states or territories:
Arizona (except for the Navajo Nation)
Indiana (Eastern zone only)
Hawaii
Guam
Puerto Rico
Virgin Islands
American Samoa


Since the time change, I have had a few complaints about the time being wrong on the forum due to daylight savings time.

Go to your User CP and click "Edit Options".

Scroll down until you see the time zone settings.

Make sure you have it set on the correct time zone and have it set on"Automatically detect DST settings"

If this does not fix the issue, disable the Automatic Detect and set it to a GMT setting that corrects the time for you. For instance, if you live in the eastern time zone of the US, set your time to GMT-5. Central sets to GMT-6, Mountain sets to GMT-7, Pacific sets to GMT-8, Alaska sets to GMT-9. If you use this route, you must set to a time zone one hour greater in October (Eastern will become GMT-4). If you live outside of the US, set your time zone according to your region.
