Currently, this is a hidden but perhaps useful switch and can only be found by experts when browsing Language.php. I propose now to add a * short description and a * fail-safe default value directly in DefaultSettings.php $wgLocalTZoffset = false; or $wgLocalTZoffset = '0'; ( the correct default will depend on the future layout of Language::userAdjust ) Regarding $wgLocalTZoffset see provisionally also * http://bugzilla.wikipedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3305 * http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_FAQ#How_do_I_set_the_timezone_for_my_MediaWiki.3F * http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2004-April/000357.html Related is * http://bugzilla.wikipedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=505

There is already a $wgLocaltimezone that should probably be used instead of $wgLocalTZoffset
