When I submit any post on Local Guides Connect to publish then my post appears here with Yesterday date(A day before current date).
To crosscheck I am submitting this post now on Date : 22-June-2020 With Time as 11:59 A.M. but I am sure that it will show here date as 21-June-2020.
Please do the needful to help us as my post becomes a day older and pushed to downside of the concerned segment.
Edited to add proof as yesterday date showing in post.
@NeerajKumarIndia Yes, it seems all posts have dates the ways you have reported on the main page, but when we click and open the post itself, it does show the correct date. Like a post that I just made today 22 June, in the post, it says 22 June, but when I go to “Home”, where all the posts are listed, it says 21 June. Even when I open the specific topic, it still says 21 June.
The only thing I can think is if maybe the main page displays in US time.
@MoniDi If you can help check out for us.
I am on Chrome on Windows desktop in GMT +8
NeerajKumar should be in GMT +5.30
Hell @NeerajKumarIndia
The Connect site follows the CA, USA local time and the date is recorded accordingly.
However, that doesn’t make any difference as once you open the post, that will show the date when you posted as per the setting in Connect.
i.e. GMT + 5:30.
Hello @NeerajKumarIndia ,
Thank you for reaching out and @StephenAbraham thank you for tagging me.
Please be advised that I will accept @C_T 's reply as the solution to this post as it gives an answer to the question in it.
No it don’t changes for me, When members from other Time zone posted here before or after me on same day, Theirs post appears above mine due to latest by date.
Look here, I posted this on yesterday but till now showing date as 20-June-2020
After clicking on post it is yesterday as Today is 21-June-2020, Not 22-June-2020 according to LGC for Local Guides of my Time Zone.
Regard’s
Possibly all post are based on US Pacific timezone… I would be able to verify tomorrow I guess with my post today. Because my post says 25 mins ago, possibly referring to US timezone. Might have been always like this, I have noticed this before, but didn’t pay much attention to it previously.
Anyways, let Google come back with the information then.
Hello @NeerajKumarIndia
Here is a screen-shot how I see your post in the preview pane & after launch.
The post before your submission “Rich (Reached) level 10”, has a date and time stamp of 21/06/20 9:40 am & is before your posting.
The post after you “New badge” has a date and time stamp of 21/06/20 7:30 PM. Thus there is no question of somebody overriding the position because of the confusing logic of the date. Everything happens in the FIFO (First in first out) manner.
Another way to verify that is by going through visiting the recent pages log where everything (i.e posts+comments) appears sequentially.
Thus you will note that every activity gets recorded sequentially & there is no chance of mixup
As I understand, whenever we submit something, Connect shows the date in the full screen mode as per our setting on the site. However, in preview pane that gets adjusted to CA local time.
Hello @NeerajKumarIndia
The display date confusion is because of your setting.
Please change the setting at https://www.localguidesconnect.com/t5/user/myprofilepage/tab/user-preferences:display to absolute & then that ambiguity will vanish.
Thank you @C_T . Now it shows actual date on clicking post after setting advised.
Hello @NeerajKumarIndia ,
To prevent further confusion in the community, we’ve adjusted the time between the main post and post preview. Now you will see the same date stamp on both.
Due to this update, I am marking my reply as the solution.
