Hi
How can we who live outside the U.S. (Sweden) set the time in the guestbook?

Re: guestbook time

I'm sorry, the GB code had no timezone settings.
I can show you how to add it, but you will need to manually edit the code . Please also note that you will need to do it again if you ever publish the guestbook page again using the option "Publish All Files"

Re: guestbook time

Download from the site the file guestbook.php (or whatever you have named it)

You will see the following code:

<?php
session_start();
define('ADMIN_PASS', 'password');
function strip_chars($var)
{
return trim(str_replace("\r", NULL, htmlspecialchars(stripslashes(strip_tags($var)), ENT_QUOTES)));
}
function bbcode($var)
etc .....................


Add the following:

<?php
session_start();
$timezone = "Europe/Rome";
if (function_exists(date_default_timezone_set)) {
date_default_timezone_set($timezone);
}
else{
putenv ($timezone);
mktime(0,0,0,1,1,1970);
}

define('ADMIN_PASS', 'password');
function strip_chars($var)
{
return trim(str_replace("\r", NULL, htmlspecialchars(stripslashes(strip_tags($var)), ENT_QUOTES)));
}
function bbcode($var)
etc .........................

Upload the amended file on the server.

Replace "Europe/Rome" with whatever your timezone is.
For a list of valid Europe timezones, please consult

http://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.europe.php

If you ever republish the gusetbook using the option "Publish All files", you will need to reapeat the procedure OR save the file and just upload it again (that is, IF you haven't changed any setting which will ammend the file anyway)

Re: guestbook time

Hello
Can you change, so you are able to select the time zone in BlueVoda
There are many time zones in the world.
It might be too much work for you?
Otherwise, BlueVoda is a great tool for us
Thank you very much

Re: guestbook time

This seems to be a difference on the server clock, so probably there is no easy solution for this (other than submit a support ticket and ask VH staff to see if they can fix it)

I'm not part of the development team, so I can't add the timezone selection inside BV, but you can post in the "Wish List" forum.
