For about a week noe I havn't been able to change the time to the correct setting in my profile options. It shows that I have Central Time selectes which is correct, but whenever I click save changes I still get this at the bottom of the page "All times are GMT -5. The time now is 10:47 PM.", which is an hour too far ahead. Anyone know what the problem might be?
 
What is your "DST Correction Option" setting in your profile options? I am in the same time zone as you are, and I have mine set to "Automatically Detect DST Settings" and the time is correct for me.
 
The time zone is set at Auto, and the Time Zone at Central. I tried setting that to auto correction off and that seems to correct the problem. Could it have something to do with my system clock being wrong, or the date being wrong? I have it fixed now but others might have this same problem.
 
Yeah, you have to set it to Off. I have to as well, when I'm not in DST. For some reason, the DST settings haven't been coded very well by vBulletin.
 
I don't have any problems.
All times are GMT +1. The time now is 4:25 PM.
It is exactly the same time here.
 
I haven't had any problems. I have mine set at GMT -6 Central Time (US & Candad), Mexico City. It is also set to Automatically Detect DST settings. Right now my time is correct at the bottom of the page, saying All times are GMT -6. The time now is 3:03PM.
 
Well, the DST Settings are different in the Southern Hemisphere, and the DST Settings here are meant for Northern Hemisphere, but Ben's from America, so that's not a problem. If cardude's settings are fine, and you're both from Wisconsin, why don't you get cardude's settings, and see if that works. It almost definately should work.
