How to Change OpenCart Timezone
Go to system/startup.php and find following lines of code:
if (!ini_get('date.timezone')) {
date_default_timezone_set('UTC');
}Replace with following lines of code by changing to your timezone
date_default_timezone_set('Australia/Sydney');Synchronize PHP and Database Timezone
The query we use to set database timezone if you are super admin is below:
SET time_zone='offset'; |
But everyone has no super admin access so need to change in the code level. For that go to system/library/db/mysqli.php if you are using MySQLi and add code below after $this->connection->query(“SET SQL_MODE = ””);
$dt = new \DateTime();
$this->connection->query("SET time_zone='" . $dt->format('P') . "';");With these changes your timezone in Opencart are changed.
