Running WP 3.0.1 with a child theme of the BP default, just upgraded to 1.2.6 and I’ve confirmed that the GMT time lag still exists for private messaging.

I believe Ticket 2203 was supposed to fix this and was committed to the 1.2.6 release. Help?

I really hope you’re wrong about that as this ongoing issue was meant to have been corrected once and for all in 1.2.6.

I’m afraid so.

But if my memory doesn’t betray me, I think it’s a different part of the private messaging system that’s showing the wrong time now.

it’s displaying utc time by the looks of things at least my time stamp is an hour behind our present utc +1

checking and on the dev install I was working on I hadn’t set local time in WP settings

Let me know what you discover, hnla

Not looking good having set my local time correctly and WP settings showing UTC and my local time messaging time stamps have now jumped ahead of my local time by 1 hour

Alas, both of you are correct.

trying to track down bp_core_current_time() my batch find locates references to it but I can’t find actual parent function

bp core, line 1312

cool cheers.

this is/was the relevant ticket I guess?

http://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2203

Yes

Thinking the issue lies with:

/messages/messages-loop.php

bp_message_thread_last_post_date()

function lives in:
/buddypress/bp-messages/bp-messages-templatetags.php: line 288

would guess at the filter

bp_format_time(get_date_from_gmt(

is possibly to blame but will have to see if the ticket sheds light on it

Fix is simply that

bp_format_time(get_date_from_gmt(

should have been changed but likely missed to:

bp_core_current_time(get_date_from_gmt(

Nope that isn’t correct

can’t be ‘current’ time
