Guys,

What is the deal with the clock that sets the post time or update time. It seems to be an hour out?

It was fine a few days ago.. This is the best way to see if any updates have been added. (I monitor this site at work... LOL) :cry:

The server time was initially set incorrectly, so that has been adjusted. Check your own time settings under "My Controls" --> Board Settings. It shows you what the system thinks your current time is. If its an hour out, use the "Daylight Savings Time" checkbox to get it correct.

Pretty sure. All my timezone information is correct. However, the software doesn't calculate daylight savings particularly intelligently (it was written in and for the northern hemisphere), so its not surprising that the time is slightly out.

Just play with the timezone and the DST checkbox until the time displayed is the same as your local time. The post times will then line up on the board itself.
