wrong time zone 11 Years, 4 Months ago	Karma: 0
The quiz result date (start date, end date) is in UTC+0, which is not correct, I set utc+8 (shanghai) in joomla 1.7 global configuration, and the datetime store in mysql is utc+0. I found an article about the date in joomla, but now idea how to modify it. webamoeba.co.uk/blog/working-with-dates-in-joomla/ can anyone help?

I use lite version.

I saw there are some code in class.Date.php to handle timezone, no idea why it can't work.

Code:

	function formatDate($date, $format = null, $tz = null)

	{	

		$format = ArisDate::_getFormat($format);

		$tz = ArisDate::_getTimeZone($tz);

		

		$regs = null;

		if ($date && preg_match('#([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{2})-([0-9]{2})\s([0-9]{2}):([0-9]{2}):([0-9]{2})#', $date, $regs)) 

		{	

			$date = mktime($regs[4], $regs[5], $regs[6], $regs[2], $regs[3], $regs[1]);

			$date = $date > -1 ? strftime($format, $date + ($tz * 60 * 60)) : '-';

		}

		

		return $date;

	}

Provide the following information: 1. What version of the extension do you use? 2. Does the problem occur on frontend or backend? Does it occur on the page will all quizzes results? 3. What time zone is used for user who opens the page? Regards, ARI Soft

1. The latest version of the extension is 1.2.3 so you can't use version 1.5.0. Regards, ARI Soft
