LOL! I guess you're right, Dennis, as long as our birds are back in town! But I did fix my time anyway.

Daylight Savings Time is once again here folks - check your "time" - either on your profile page or when you are posting or even when you are checking out the "who's online" page.

Instructions on what to do if you time is "off" are listed in the previous post ...
And if you still have problems, pm me.

Daylight Savings Time folks - which means everyone should go into their Profile page and update their time.

How to do this you ask?

1.  go to the "Profile" link at the top of this page
2.  click on "Look and Layout Preferences" link on the left hand side of the screen
3.  look for "Time Offset" and click on the "auto-detect" link
4.  check the "current forum time" right under the auto-detect link
     - if its correct click on the "Change Profile" button in the bottom right corner
      - if its not correct, manually add or delete (i.e., +1 or -1) hours until the time is right


If you have problems and/or your time is still wrong, let me know and I can manually change your time for you.

You can put a zero or you can click on the "auto-detect" link, both should work.  And so long as the time is right when you look at your post, that's all that really matters

Thanks, TPC, looks fine to me now.

I would ask that everyone check their "local" time on their profiles ...  I was checking something else and realized that my time (Winnipeg local) was showing as 1 hour later than it should on my profile page.  Don't have any idea why this happened, and maybe it's just me, but thought I would alert you all to it.

I was just noticing that current posts were also registering as one hour later than the actual Winnipeg time. So I attempted to follow your instructions, TPC, and have tried to correct this on my profile page. I put a "0" in the forum default box. Seems to be working so far. Hope I have done the right thing to correct it.

Wow!  "permissions purgatory"  Now that's an expression that might be useful when an offspring is asking for something.

"You'll just need to wait, dear. I have to check down in Permissions Purgatory to see if anything is available today.

[bccs]

Hmmm, I've heard of that before, best to give tracy a pm, something on her end I think.

Hmmm, does bccs know how to call it, or what!!!!!!

Now I can see all the profile options like I used to and was able to change to the current time!
