Function __global->utctime_to_usertime

Definitions

sources/temporal.php

  • Convert a UTC timestamp to a user timestamp. The user timestamp should not be pumped through get_timezoned_* as this already performs the conversions internally.What complicates understanding of matters is that "user time" is not the timestamp that would exist on a user's PC, as all timestamps are meant to be stored in UTC. "user time" is offsetted to compensate, a virtual construct.
  • Visibility: public
  • Is abstract?: No
  • Is static?: No
  • Is final?: No
  • Returns: int

$member_id ?MEMBER No No Null N/A N/A Member for which the date is being rendered (null: current member)
