Post subject: Birthdays Losing Days Over Time.

I thought this problem was PHP chron related but I have since disabled all chron functions and still seem to be losing days with time (one day lost per month about) on the birthdays.

Also when set in profile they always display a day behind what is set.

That is really strange... we had the error in the past versions, but I was quite sure it has been fixed in IP 1.3.

Do you have a link to test please?

It is strange, not a big problem but something I thought I should at least mention/ask about.

I will make you an account and PM you the log-in info. This happens over quite a period of time though, I would say around one day a month is lost.

On my profile on your website is working fine...

Try to alter your settings regarding DST... try to set it on "Server" and let me know.

I will try that! Thanks again Luca!

I will report back in a couple months. This might not be an issue with your new release though. I am still testing the beta-1 locally, however I may update before this is anything to really worry about anyway.

Thought I should at least mention it though.

Take care,
-Hans

EDIT:

I just noticed that I have lost a few days on this website as well!! If you look at my profile here right now it shows my birthday as 5/5/1983 when really it is 5/9/1983

From what I have noticed, it occurs when changing MySQL/PHP versions or optimizing the database. Not in any way a huge problem though, just odd!
