--- Comment #17 from Harihar Shankar <[email protected]> 2012-05-08 16:01:56 UTC --- We have updated the plugin code to incorporate all but one change that had been suggested. We need your opinion on how to fix the timezone issue that the plugin introduces. We have found 3 ways to fix this issue and we would appreciate input on which is the best approach. 1) Use the DateTimeZone class http://www.php.net/manual/en/class.datetimezone.php to use the GMT timezone for every time function used by the plugin. The drawback with this approach is that this class is available in PHP version > 5.2.0. Even though this would work in Mediawiki servers, a lot of other wikis use older PHP versions. 2) Save the default timezone set for a wiki by using the getTimezone() function, use setTimezone('GMT') when the plugin is invoked, and then set it back to the default timezone when the plugin is finished. This approach will work with all the versions of PHP. 3) The plugin can check if the datetimezone class is available and use it. Otherwise use method 2 above. Please advice us on what the best approach will be. Note: The new plugin code is not available for download yet. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
