OK, this drove me mad over the last two days.
Ever had entries which you update on your site disappear after your update them? (and reappear later)
I thought something was caching - so turn caching off and cleared current cache. No joy.
The culprit was Daylight Saving Time setting on EE.
My entry date was one hour ahead of my server time so did not publish for an hour.
So - how do you absolutley set DST consistently?
1: Turn off daylight time saving in CP
2: Turn off daylight time saving for all users who might be adding content
3: Don’t let users edit their own daylight saving
4: Ensure “Honor the Daylight Saving Time setting associated with each channel entry?” is set to No.
5: Adjust and re-save any previously saved entries
A nod in the general direction of dp_miller from the EE forums for this, thought it was a big enough ‘gotcha’ to warrant a post here.
