How to change Time Display
« on: December 30, 2013, 05:09:16 am »
Since this is a Worldwide forum, how can I change the times displayed to the local time zone ?

Click on your name. It will go to your profile.
Click on "look and layout".
Set the number of hours it needs in "time offset".
Scroll to bottom of page and click "change profile"

Numb-numb here again.
On Saturday local time changed from BST to GMT.
I found this thread again and eventually realised that now there is an extra second step --- click on "Modify Profile"
Does iddee's reply need updating ??

I don't know if browsers show it differently, but in Firefox, the steps are correct. Mine says "change profile" rather than "modify profile", but they mean the same. You can also click on "auto detect" and it will pick up the time from the internet. You won't have to set the number of hours to offset.
