ED - Time Zone

Hello,

I am testing something that my users have reported and I can not seem to fix it. The ED posts are all showing up in the exact same time zone, regardless of what we have our ES time zone set to. We have tested numerous settings and they do not work.

Our joomla content such as articles are showing in the correct time zone and our ES content shows in the correct time zone as well. Even the stream activity for the ED content shows in the correct time zone. It appears that it is just the ED content itself within the ED environment that is defaulting to one time zone for everyone.

Thanks

Hi Fidel,

May I know which page in particular is showing a different timezone? Perhaps some screenshots would be great.

Hi,

It is basically occurring anywhere there is a time stamp within the ED environment.

As you can see in my screen shots, the ED time stamps are defaulting to a time zone that i did not set. This is the time zone that all ED time stamps show up in for all my users, regardless of their settings.

When you look at the ES stream pic, it shows in my time zone which I have set. Other users also see the proper time stamps for ES as it relates to their time zone settings.

Thanks

Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Hm, it seems like you have customised these 2 files on your site.

JoomlaFolder/templates/rt_corvus/html/com_easydiscuss/post/default.reply.item.php
JoomlaFolder/templates/rt_corvus/html/com_easydiscuss/forums/item.php

I already help you applied some fix, it should respect the timezone now, can you give it a check is it work fine now?



ED::date($post->created)->format('d F Y h:i:s A')



//replace with

ED::date($post->created)->display('d F Y h:i:s A')
