    I thought we were now on GMT but I have just had to reset my board preferences to UTC-1 Azores standard time to get the times correct on posts?

    Because the board now uses UTC.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time

    Doesn’t change with DST.

    🙁 just checked on another forum I frequent and that auto detects and adjusts time settings.

    Fact is that UTC or DST, I am on GMT not GMT-1. 😛

    Can’t see why they have to mess with it. 😀

    No clue.

    TBH I don’t really rank it up there on the “to-do” list ATM. 😉

    I think you can leave the time zone set to GMT all year round and just change summer time active option to Yes or No as appropriate.

    Mine was set to GMT and the DST option set to YES, but it still displays the wrong time unless I set it to GMT-1

    Jim, at last you’ve sussed it to everyones relief no doubt. After all GMT-1 = Greater Manchester Time …as you have your own dedicated Time Zone. :clown:
