When I write a post at dicedown.com to test some things I noticed that I post am article at 10:00pm pacific and the published version tells people I released the article 7 hours ago.

 

i tried a test comment and it said the comment was 17 hours old after I had just made the comment a minute ago. Why is the theme not using the pacific time zone? But is instead way off?

i really want to start using this theme but there are so many little things thadoesn’t seem to work.

I wonder if I should just send in an email with all my questions. As it is frustrating trying to piece all the answers together. The theme looks amazing and I just want it to work.

… GMT is not going to solve this. It’s 7 hours behind PST so that would make it 8hours behind GMT.

Yeah the comment post is even more off. In trying to search the Internet to see of there is an answer amongst other themes that use bootstrap.

add below
$post = get_post();
if( $post ) {
$from = $post->post_date;
}

I tried that and all the post dates were set to January 1, 1970. Here’s what that section of the file looks like:

I’ll try the coding Dominic has suggested. I love in Vancouver and a lot of my readers are west coast.

I have always had my time zone set properly for Pacific standard time (GMT-7) and i would like to keep it that way and not use GMT.

Hi Dominic,

I tried that and all the post dates were set to January 1, 1970. Here’s what that section of the file looks like:

 

if ( empty($to) )
$post = get_post();

if( $post ) {
$from = $post->post_date;
}
$to = time();
$diff = (int) abs($to – $from);

Yes, this is NOT resolved. The code needs to be fixed. It is a fundamental issue with the template.

Why is this marked ‘Resolved’ when it is not?

Hi !

-You can download the following folder. override in your theme folder.
Best to avoid the worst case, your backup to a new version.
