My time (Eastern) = 4:47 pm
Board time = 12:47 AM
Can you fix this please? Many thanks!!

For anyone else needing a quick fix....
Go to your ACP and then SYSTEM SETTINGS, DATE & TIME SETTINGS.
In the field marked:
Server Time Adjustment (in minutes)
You fine tune the server time. If you need to subtract minutes from the server time, start the number with a '-' (no quotes).
Enter the following: -480 (use the negative sign)
difference = 8 hours. 8 hours X 60 minutes = 480 minutes difference. |

| This happened a few days ago. I adjusted the time by -420. Now, the server time has been rectified. But number of online members is showing an absurd number and many of them are being shown as logged since 22nd Nov. while today is 21st at my end. God knows what else has gone haywire due to this fluctuation in server time. |

Well it certainly hasn't. I have members posting early tomorrow morning right now! Also, the server has been down most of today.  |

| Mine is set at -60 in my ACP and all is well. I hope it stays this way! I neve did figure out why or how in regards to Daylight Saving Time and members having the proper time zone selected but the time is still off. |
