Tristan,

Well if you go back to your original post on page two of this topic, what times do you see on your original post? Cause I'm still seeing those same times that I've mentioned, and I'm seeing them on two different computers. :)
Alan,

Take care and take trains!

Upon further inspection, it appears that Invision does not adjust the "edited at" times in the messages according to your preferences like it does for display of all other times. (Probably because the "edited at" time is just inserted as text into the message, not a dynamic date.) So the time is put in according to the time zone of the posting user. For example, I had my daylight savings box set wrong for a while, so my post edits from that time are an hour off from when they should be (for anyone who looks at those posts, since they're not time zone adjusted).

With that in mind...
Tristan, maybe your clock offset was set wrong when you edited that post, and later got fixed?
Or, maybe the server just had some temporary burp and wrote the GMT time onto the post without applying the proper -5 offset?

Well, I didn't have my time zone set properly so that compensates for at least three hours of the offset...doesn't seem to be a recurring problem so we'll call it solved. I am posting this message at 11:50 PM GMT -5 as a test.

[Edit 11:50 Still]Post was right, I assume edit date is too :)

Yup, and from PST I see 8:50 for the post and 11:50 for the edit :lol: I bet Ikonboard will fix the non-adjustment of edit times in their next release.
