newbie question: Time and Date


BC

Anonymous
Hello! I've searched the forums and still don't have a real good answer for this:

Is there a way for GeekLog to pull the time and date from the user's computer, rather than from the server, and have the time of posts be relative to their time and date?

That's a very, very interesting question. I never tried this but this may help:

Now it`s me having a question:

I know the timezone hack or meanwhile adjustment in config.php but where can a user (not admin) adjust his time? Like in phpbb and most other forums there is a pulldown menu giving the user a choice of adjusting his display time + or - UTC or the given server time. Seems to be completely forgotten in GL?
