I'm guessing you're talking about time calculations and not time stamps.

in v5 time stamps are calculated relative to UTC, so the the time has to be in UTC as well - so you have to convert your time zone (daylight savings or not) to UTC - #151

It's a little bit confusing but it's a great system if you use something like Netlify CMS where it gets that info immediately

time calculations for issues are calculated relative to each other. (it took 50 minutes for an issue to be resolved, calculating in UTC)

cstate supports time zones and relative time even before hugo v0.87 - am I missing something? can you send your layout file snippets, maybe that'd help me understand?

I see what you are saying....

For relative times, the calcs work.

And in my issues, I set the time so if I set them all relative to my timezone, things are good.

However, last modified, and the "32 hours" on the main page (short issues list at bottom) calcs are off unless IO set a partial and use the Hugo date formatting for my timezone, or at least take out the "UTC" out of the code.

Its possible this is all a non-issue and I am missing an option or workaround. Don't want to waste anyones time.

I've found that working around the process in the manner I mentioned gets the results that I need for this time. This issue can be closed.

hi again! that's really strange, how were they calculated wrong in the default templates and what did you change the templates to? sharing the code would be useful here

since hugo started supporting time zones in the newer versions which i wasn't aware of, it would be logical for me to document the 'proper' settings - currently I have designed the system for all dates to be in UTC (and show in UTC, if you disable relative time) so that they can be calculated regardless of what region you are in
