everlifefree Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I was wondering if you could help me make it so that my users last login and online since will so the proper time relating to there timezone instead of just the time on the server. When my user sign up the enter a variable into the database of like "US mountain time would be -7" and the variable "-7" in stored in the database table users under the timezone section thing... Please help! heres the current php used: /* Figure out if the user is online or not */ if (_fnc("user", $_GET["id"], "last_load") > (date("U") - 180)) { $tpl -> Zone("onlinecheck", "online"); $tpl -> AssignArray(array( "onlinesince" => date($CONF["LOCALE_SHORT_TIME"], _fnc("user", $_GET["id"], "last_login")), "online.object" => $GLOBALS["OBJ"]["online"] )); } elseif (_fnc("user", $_GET["id"], "last_login") != 0) { $tpl -> Zone("onlinecheck", "offline"); $tpl -> AssignArray(array( "lastlogin" => date($CONF["LOCALE_SHORT_DATE_TIME"], _fnc("user", $_GET["id"], "last_login")), "online.object" => NULL )); } else { $tpl -> Zone("onlinecheck", "nologin"); $tpl -> AssignArray(array( "lastlogin" => NULL, "online.object" => NULL )); } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/84587-timezone-alter-time/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 This is what I do $offset = (60 * 60) * $_SESSION['offset']; <?php echo date('m/d/Y-H:i',$row->ndate + $offset);?> Where $_SESSION['offset'] is like -3 or whatever the offset value is for them.

everlifefree Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 well right now it is set in my database under timezone does it need a further code to acquire it or do I need to just simple change the timezone to offset??
