    Server time is correct, EE time is off by 1 hour.

    Example:

    {current_time format="%Y %m %d %H:%i:%s"}
    <?php echo date('Y m d H:i:s'); ?>

    returns

    2013 08 01 12:52:19
    2013 08 01 13:52:19

    No matter what time zone I set EE to under Admin > Localization Settings, no matter if with or without Daylight Saving Time, no matter if logged in or not, {current_time} will always return the same, wrong date.

    I’m seeing the same thing.

    Also, wishing I could adjust my timezone to take me back to the days when EE support was better funded… The support is still great when it happens, but it’s a far cry from the same-day responses we enjoyed for so long.

    I’m seeing this complaint about the current support often… just back myself after working on my own for several years on EE projects.

    It seems the support has largely moved off-site to the locations and communities listed in my signature below.

    However, full-blown bug reports are still best reported here and in the bug reporting section.

    Update on this issue: check your membershi preferences to make sure your time zone entered there is correct. Doesn’t fix the problem reported but can change the results.
