    Hehe, I think I remember some comments about it taking its time from the server, do we know the commit message saying why it was removed?

    The function to modify is:

    lib/smarty_tiki/modifier.tiki_long_datetime.php
    lib/smarty_tiki/modifier.tiki_short_datetime.php

    I usually change this line:
    Copy to clipboard
    return smarty_modifier_tiki_date_format($string, $tikilib->get_long_datetime_format(), null, tra("%A %d of %B, %Y[%H:%M:%S %Z]"));

    to read:
    Copy to clipboard
    return smarty_modifier_tiki_date_format($string, $tikilib->get_long_datetime_format(), null, tra("%A %d of %B, %Y %H:%M:%S"));


    removing the and dropping the %Z (timezone) or changing it to:

    Copy to clipboard
    return smarty_modifier_tiki_date_format($string, $tikilib->get_long_datetime_format(), null, tra("%A %d of %B, %Y[%H:%M:%S GMT]"));

    for hardcoded GMT as most of my site dont allow users to change to the timezone 😊

    Not sure this is exactly related; but perhaps...

    I changed General Preferences to: H:M in Ottawa (left out % since they screw up posting)

    and my tiki-top_bar.tpl is:

    Image
    Copy to clipboard
    {include file="vball_header.tpl"}
{if $feature_calendar eq 'y' and $tiki_p_view_calendar eq 'y'}
  {$smarty.now|tiki_short_datetime}
{else}
  {$smarty.now|tiki_short_datetime}
{/if}
{if $tiki_p_admin eq 'y' and $feature_debug_console eq 'y'}
   // {tr}debug{/tr}
{/if}


    BUT for some reason when i am logged in as Admin i get the correct output:

    Tue 22 of Jun, 2004 12:49 in Ottawa

    but when not logged in; i get GMT (I think??)

    Tue 22 of Jun, 2004 16:49 in Ottawa

    Any idea why something is changing this based on login level?
