Yesterday comes wrong - time zone ?

Post by sramu »

For me both this morning's (only some) and actual yesterday's posts are shown as yesterday - may be it is because of the time zone. Also, the posts with wrong yesterday are shown before yesterday's afternoon messages.

E.G. Yesterday 2.00 am (should have been today) shows before yesterady 4.15 pm.

I think the date and time conversion are not synchoronized.

Thanks vkd_1717. My time zone is correct - GMT + 5.5 hours for India. May be Dhruv can help.

This is still a problem. Yesterday/Today is displayed based on GMT/UTC time. So here in the Pacific time zone, any post after 4pm PST (12:00 am GMT) is displayed as Today and anything before that is displayed as Yesterday. I have my time zone set to GMT-8 hours.

It's a minor problem but still would be nice to get rid of it :)
