Hi , 

I try to change a PHP code for a booking program without succes. Now the time set is from 00.00 - 24.00hours but it must be fixed on 15.00H ( dropoff) and 11.00H (pick-up). Can someone help me please ? 

Big thanks in advance !

I'm working on a project that has a lot of different timezone options, and all I have from the users is their UTC offset.

After weeks of doing tweaks, I come to new issues every time I add something, one would think it would be a lot easier to just get the correct time and day :)

The latest issue is that when I try to rewrite a date to a better fomat, it disregards the GMT offset. Like this:

4/14/19, 12:00 PM GMT+2 (=$date) becomes ... 14-04-2019 10:00 when using this code:

$bp_date_to_format = date_create_from_format('Y-m-d\TH:i:sP', $date);
echo date_format($bp_date_to_format, 'd-m-Y H:i');

I figured it would just rewrite the format, keeping the exact time. It isn't.

We do have all these sorts of localization functions as well, but because there doesn't seem to be one single standard (each 3rd party API connection we have uses its own default datetime format so it seems).

        // Remove UTC Text
        $UTC_offset = str_replace('UTC', '', $timezone);

        // Get Offset in Minutes
        if (stripos($UTC_offset, ':') !== false) {
            // Calculate seconds from offset
            list($hours, $minutes) = explode(':', $offset);
            $seconds = $hours * 60 * 60 + $minutes * 60;
        } else {
            $seconds = $UTC_offset * 60 * 60;
        }

        // Get User timezone name from seconds
        $timezone = timezone_name_from_abbr('', $seconds, 1);
        if ($timezone === false) {
            $timezone = timezone_name_from_abbr('', $seconds, 0);
        }
        // Set new TZ
        return date_default_timezone_set($timezone);

Isn't there any "one way"solution that can be used? It's confusing to say the least.

Cheers.

PHP date and time function is not showing correct time on my local system

I have the following php code

date_default_timezone_set("Africa/Lagos");

$date = date('d-m-y h:i:s');

echo "Server Time ".$date ."<br>";

echo "The time is " . date("h:i:sa")."<br>";

$current_datetime = date("Y-m-d") . ' ' . date("H:i:s", STRTOTIME(date('h:i:sa')));

echo "Current time1: ".$current_datetime . "<br>";

Output

Server Time 21-05-21 09:55:39
The time is 09:55:39am
Current time1: 2021-05-21 09:55:39

Expected Output

Server Time 21-05-21 10:55:39
The time is 10:55:39am
Current time1: 2021-05-21 10:55:3

Any help would be appreciated.
