    I've noticed that some posts are given a time of 1 hour in the future. I think the problem is with STR.

    On the home page where new topics are listed I see that dstapper posted (to Single Speeders ...) at 1:35 PM. When I open the thread his post is tagged at 2:35 PM!

    Update - now this is odd. The time depends on whether I'm logged in or not. :-k


    P.S. I also have to re-logon after (to me) a short period of inactivity. BTW I wish that didn't happen.

    Picture attached.

    I just checked my time and date settings on STR webite and it is Pacific Time...my clock is correct on my computer. Doug may have found a bug.

    I've noticed the same when I'm not logged in.... I just figured if it didn't have preferences specified, it defaulted you to MTN time or something.

    If you change the DST setting from auto-detect to always correct it will fix the problem.

    The problem is with STR, not anyone's PC.

    Thanks, Doug. I'm looking into it.

    It was because of daylight savings time. Made a settings change on STR. It's fixed on my end when I'm either logged in or out.

    Does anyone else have this problem still? If so, what's under your "date & time options" under this page?

    Mine was set to Auto Detect when Doug noticed the problem. I have since changed it to corrections always on.

    The problem is still around. Maybe the new dates for DST weren't set in all SW. Anyway when I changed to "DST always on" time is correct.
