Osc uses the server time, if the server is not in your tz, you will need to offset it. Server Timezone fix in the contributions area.

look in /includes/languages/english.php

Did you do all 6 steps?

Did you do all 6 steps?

 

Yes, I did these

 

1. in the file /catalog/includes/langauges/english.php add the following only if it is NOT already present :-

2. in the file /catalog/admin/includes/langauges/english.php add the following only if it is NOT already present :-

3. in the file /catalog/includes/functions/database.php find the code :-

4. in the file /catalog/admin/includes/functions/database.php find the code :-

5. in the file catalog\includes\configure.php add the following code to the end of the file, but before the ending ?> :-

6. in the file catalog\admin\includes\configure.php add the following code to the end of the file, but before the ending ?> :-

 

BUT

 

1. My location is Georgia, Tbilisi, So instead of Australia/Sydney I wrote Georgia/Tbilisi

2. I edited not English.php, But Georgian.php, because I removed English.php and use only Georgian Language

 

this is it.

[Guest]

Yeah, your changes are fair enough.

 

Don't know about Georgia/Tbilisi but that is not the problem.

 

There is another contribution.

Do post back on how you went.

I have reviewed the Time Zone Offset, but does it work only for orders?

 

I mean does it correct any time placed on website? as I understood it only regulates order's time

[Guest]

this was an error for first contr

 

1193 - Unknown system variable 'time_zone'

 

SET time_zone='+4:00'

I don't use it, so I don't know.

 

Thinking back, why not ask your webhost about the server error "unknown Function" Time_zone

 

It maybe something they have not enabled.

I e-mailed to my server so I am waiting for their response

[Guest]

I got this notice

 

We are using GMT time on our servers. This makes it easy to calculate to calculate your local time from it. E.g. if your time zone is -3 you simply subtract three hours from the GMT time in your script to get your local time..

Did you try

 

@setlocale(LC_TIME, 'ge_GE.ISO_8859-1');
