Order Date

[Jonathan Hunter]

I thought I read a solution to this somewhere, sometime ago but I am unable to find it.

My invoice date is incorrect. The website is hosted in the US and I assume it's using US timezone. Can this be adjusted in Actinic somehow?

Hmmm... It looks like this line in ACTINIC.pm, sub GetActinicDate gets the time:

	($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year, $wday, $yday, $isdst) = gmtime(time);	# platform independent time

where (time) returns the time in seconds since 1970.

We could probably add an hour by amending it to be

	($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year, $wday, $yday, $isdst) = gmtime(time + 3600);	# platform independent time

Multiply that 3600 by the number of hours required.

There are a couple of other places in ACTINIC.pm and OrderScript.pl that directly use gmtime instead of calling GetActinicDate and it may be necessary to make the same adjustment there.

Thanks Norman, I shall give it a try. I need to work out my server time first. I guess there will be a tool somewhere on the web or in my admin panel.

There is a Knowledgebase article that is related to your problem:
How do I change the time that shows on the customer receipt email, and also change the time the orders are shown as being created?

This is also in the AUG
