Time stamp
I have a question about the time stamp that says when I visited the site last. I've noticed that sometimes it says I've been on the site when I haven't. Is there a glitch or is someone logging in under my name?
Thanks |
Did you get an answer on that Mike? Was wondering the same thing?

The timestamp is in UTC.

Mine was at 4:31pm, not 11:31 pm.

If you are viewing as a guest you are seeing all time stamps with respect to the web server/forums local time setting (which appears to be GMT(0)), which may or may not be (likely not) in the same time zone as you :-) Calgary is GMT-7 btw.
When you log in it picks up your timezone setting and adjusts all times to be within your time zone so they appear correct. |
OK. My mistake. It is not UTC. The server that holds this website is at a location 16 hours ahead of Canada/Pacific. I bet it is in Hong Kong.
The reason why 'if I view the site as a guest it says that this thread was started at 4:23 PM and if I'm logged in it says 9:23 AM (which is correct). ' is that ... When you created the thread, the time '2010-02-25_15:31' was stamped onto your thread. (It was 2010-02-24_23:31 in HK) When you view the thread as owner, it shows the timestamp of your thread. When you view as a guest, since the server doesn't know where your timezone is, it simply shows the server's time. |
I don't know what to tell you Mike. Your settings currently are set for your time zone. As for your logins happening when you're not on, perhaps you share a computer and someone else is browsing canreef?
