I just noticed that the site's time clock is out of whack. I posted about the PM feature at about 11:15 am, but the time stamp shows 6:13pm, about 7 hours in the future.

How to easily fix the clock offset in your Forum profile.

Hover your mouse cursor over the
Profile entry in the different Options bar above (Home is highlighted), click on the Forum Profile selection.
In the Forum Profile, hover your mouse cursor over the
Modify Profile entry, click on Look and Layout.
The displayed screen will have a
Time OffsetClick the (auto detect) highlight.  It should set your Time Offset automatically; else manually set it to -7 (if on PST, -4 for EST, etc.).
Click the Change profile button on the bottom of the page to save it.

Thank you Coralin. I'm glad somebody on this forum knows their way around computers.

One word of warning.  Check back here after we switch back to Standard time at the beginning of November.  If the forum doesn't switch it automatically, you'll need to change it manually.

if you are logged in as a member the clock (if you adjusted it) is fine, but guests are still getting some really whacky times, near as i can figure midnight, start of a new day is about 4:15 PM pacific time....might this get fixed someday?

I'm thinking guests don't have a profile, so there's no manual option for that. Could be that the coding in the app could be tweaked, but it may be overkill.
