Possible Site Problem
Jun 10

To All
It's approx. 11:45 pm Pacific Daylight Savings, USA.
When I hit the refresh button (circular line with an arrow head), the forum does not refresh its status.
The time at the top of the webpage is
Jun 10th, 2021 at 4:43pm
, and is frozen at that time. (I think you have to be a forum member, and signed in, and also enabled the clock function to see that data.)
I closed out the tab in the browser, then restarted the browser and loaded the webpage and the date and time remains frozen.
I'm going to try a different browser to see if there's an different behavior.
Is anyone else seeing this behavior?

So, different browser, was signed out so no clock seen, but after signing in, the clock now reads
Jun 10th, 2021 at 4:56pm
.
So the clock is ticking and changing the time reading--it's just off by a fair bit.
I will have to see what it looks like tomorrow.
I think this is based on *Server* time, and not any time being set by a user. I think a user can not adjust any thing except one's time zone. But it may be a time setting that is adjusted by the site owner somewhere in the site's underlying site operating software--and that would be Rad.
I can adjust many of the forum's internal functions, but I do not have the ability to make changes to the site's external functions.
So, I don't know at what level the clock function adjustment exists.
Maybe the site's server location has changed, and thus the clock time setting. Or, maybe my profile settings have changed--I will have to look.
It's late--will look into it further in the morning.

Something is "off". I have set my time zone (+ 1 h) and summer time in effect. The forum clock and the computer clock have always told the same time but now the forum clock is 03:12 and the computer clock is 10:12.
The forum clock does not "run" but when refreshing the page, the time gets updated.

Yup, that's about the same time setting difference I was seeing.

Well, that's what I meant to say--as pages were refreshed as I opened a new page on the forum website, the clock had advanced appropriately.
Last night, I reset the time zone off-set so the computer local time matched the forum site's time, and this morning the time setting is way off again--forum time

. So, something must have been fixed by the hosting service.
I'm going to reset the time offset again to see if it stays on the correct local time now, as it had in the past ....

So, switching the time offset back to where it had been now takes me back to seeing the local time in the clock at the top of the webpages.
@Christer
Has your clock gone back to local time?

Well, the clock is off once again. It is approx. 10:47 pm local time, but the forum software is showing the time to be approx. 3:47 pm.
So, it's off by 7 hours--slow, behind the real time.
Let's see what tomorrow brings ...

Well, this is just weird!
This morning, the clock had advanced only about 2 hours since last night at approx. 10:45 pm, and was still on yesterdays date of June 15.
Now, it's back to showing the correct local time (adjusted for the time zone offset of -8), and is now showing June 16th.
I don't know what gives with this ongoing variability!

Now, in Europe, at 00.15 on June 17 the board tells 17.15 on June 16. As you said - STRANGE!

Here we are again, approx 10:40 pm in the evening local time, but the forum clock is reporting the time to be approx. 3:40 pm--again 7 hours behind!
It was fine earlier in the day.
What could be the cause of this?
Is somebody playing tricks? Or, is it the *clock gremlin*?

On my screen it says "Today at 00:45:31" and the time now is 09:20 on the computer but 02:20 on the board.
I believe that this is a ...
... "sit on hands" situation.

When first on the computer this morning, the clock was still off--that was about 6:30 am.
Now, at approx. 7:45 am, the clock is showing the correct time once again.

Exactly true. Not sure I have any alternative to consider!
