Changing Time Zone
10 November 2007 22:01
Anonymous How to change the user timezone, I need this because I use my website locally and not for worldwide. So I must change the timezone only for one country and divide by state in the country.
Any help very appreciated.

Anonymous You can change the timezone of an individual user editing his user details or else you might "hack" the default timezone of a language editing the language from System -> Language manager -> common.php

If you edit the default English language files be sure to use a valid timezone

Anonymous Hi

It is safer and the only recommended method to edit language files using the System -> Language manager -> route.

Usng a valid timezone is vital, you can see what to use by looking at a users details under Edit Users..

Good Luck

Each language files says on the top "DO NOT EDIT MANUALLY". That means that manual editing will break things and leave you with unsupported Drake CMS issues

Thanks
