    This took me ages to find out: Time stamps were always incorrect!

    After indefinite attempts to correct that, I found the root cause:

    wp-settings.php

    // WordPress calculates offsets from UTC.
    date_default_timezone_set( 'UTC' );

    I changed mine to

    // WordPress calculates offsets from UTC.
    // date_default_timezone_set( 'UTC' );

    For some reasons, wp-settings is called for plugings, always resetting the local timezone set in the admin page. I would call it a flaw in wordpress.

    Can you please mention that somewhere in the installation instructions?

    Thanks a bunch,

    I’m working on the tags ( similar to what we did with the categories and still testing it to catch any bugs), once I’m done with that and have pushed the new update live, I’ll focus on all your amazing suggestions and fixes for the next release and also add this tip to the UI, right now, keeping the UI simple is what’s giving me headaches….I will most probably add an “Expert” tab and put this Tip in there and/or on the install description here on the plugin page…Your suggestions and fixes are highly appreciate, keep’em coming. 🙂 Thanks

    Cheers,
