Time Offset Code

[prowarfare]

Hello, The web server my forums are hosted on is set 1 hour off of the real time. So on my computer w/ Timezone -8 at 7:00. The server says 6:00 w/ set to -8.

Is there a line of coding or a few lines of coding i could add in where it adds 1 hour to whatever the time is? Some of my members have been complaining about it.

Example: (server time) + 1 = what members see.

Why not set the server to the correct time?

Its web hosting from siteground.com I get cpanel access, they dont allow you to change the server unless you buy a dedicated server. Thats why I want to see If i can add in a code to fix it.

If they set the server to the correct time, timezone & DST, then you should have no problems. Regardless if this is a dedicated server or not, you should at least expect they setup the server correctly.

They said they are running CDT (Cental Daylight Time)

What they replied to in my support ticket.
The current time zone on the server is set to CDT:

I am afraid that this can not be changed.

If the server time & timezone is set correctly (regardless of the timezone used) and you have set your user timeoptions correctly in your UserCP settings, then the time should show correctly.
