Hi
I set the time zone in site settings, and for the user
but there is what so called host time which remain incorrect
the problem in that is my feedback control displays the time according to host time not from site sittings, what shall I do ???

thanks

What are you using for the feedback? Which module?

Feedback 04.04.03

the problem in in manage folder it takes the host time too
please I want a solution

Check these:

1. Server's time is set correctly
2. Portal's time zone is set correctly
3. User's time zone is set correctly

You should see time displayed in the Portal's time zone if you are not logged in. When logged in you will see the time in your time zone.

By how many hours are the displays offset from the correct time?

late about 11 hours

About 11 hours or exactly 11 hours?

Does that time difference make sense relative to GMT and where you are and your time zone?

I'm hosting my site on a share hosting providor not in my country, so it seems the time is taken from there server time
and i don't want that i want to take what i set in site sittengs, any one could host hist site on a server not in his country.


please help

There is a setting for the Site's time zone set in Admin Settings.

Each user has a time zone, too. That is set in the user's profile.

I think that DotNetNuke doesn't handle Daylight Savings Time.

can i access the time field in feedback module and add for example 8 hours on displayed time(hard codded) as a workaround ?

You should be able to set the time zone of the site to the time zone that you want it to use. Is there a problem doing that? If you do, the feedback times should all be consistent.

Actually, any times stored in the database should be in "universal" time. The time zone issue comes into play only when dates and times are displayed.

Can you give me an example, with real dates and times and time zones, as to what you are doing and what seems wrong?

But to answer your question, if you want to change the displayed dates and times on the displayed feedback list, you should be able to do that using javascript or jQuery.

There does seem to be one problem with time in DotNetNuke, and that is that its time zones don't deal with Daylight Savings Time correctly.

I have verified that this seems to be fixed in the beta version of DotNetNuke 6 that I have installed on a test server.
