our site's clock is messed up and we cant change the server's time...

how can i offset the time for all members, so that gmt -6 really is central, instead of 8 hours earlier?

my server time is set at california time and i can't adjust that... how can i offset my board to make the time settings work?

go inside your profile page m8 or options page - its one of the two and just offset it in there.

admincp->vb options->date and time options->default timezone offset

i believe thats what you are looking for.

change it to match the timezone your server is located in.


Set this to the time zone of your server's time in terms of GMT. Daylight savings time should not be taken into account, but rather set in the following option.

vBulletin's time zone offset needs to be in terms of GMT because the time zones on the Edit Options page of the User CP are in terms of GMT. The offset in the Admin CP changes the time from the server's time to GMT time. Then the offset in the User CP changes the time from GMT to the user's own time zone.
