Forum time offset (for servers with time that is a few minutes off etc.) Details »»
Forum time offset (for servers with time that is a few minutes off etc.)

No support by the author.

I created this for myself, but I figured others might benefit from this as well

What this hack does, is makes the forum time the 'right' time by offset-ting the time a few minutes ahead or a few minutes behind than the original server time. For instance, my server is about 6 minutes behind, so I would use 360 to define the number of seconds of offset.

All you have to do, is open up includes/init.php and find:
PHP Code:
define('TIMENOW'time()); 
Replace with
PHP Code:
define('TIMENOW'time() + 360); 
and change 360 to the number of seconds you want to be faster on the forums, or change the + to - to slow down the time on the forums

You'll never have to worry about that. It will never happen.

I'm not just talking to you directly, I'm just talking to everyone in general.
What's with the hostility :ermm:

It would appear that this doesn't work on 3.0.1 for some reason..

Any quick fixes for us Gary?

That's strange; I'll need some confirmation from someone else running 3.0.1 as well.

Apologies, it does work - it's just my server clock being wacky..

Looks like I'll have to go and get a support ticket.

For some reason the server time was good.. then they did an upgrade, and it went 5 mins off :|

This fixed it right up Very nice!
