PHP date showing wrong time despite the timestamp being correct

Question

I\'m having a problem with the PHP date function which I\'ve never had a problem with before.

The timestamp is entirely correct, however for some bizarre reason date

Answer 1

try this method will work

for time zone http://php.net/manual/en/timezones.php

code

<?php
date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Kolkata'); 

$dt2=date("Y-m-d H:i:s");
echo $dt2;

?>

Answer 2

For time zone: https://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php

date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago');

echo date("m/d/Y h:i:s A");

Answer 3

try this

// set default timezone
date_default_timezone_set('UTC');
//define unix timestamp
$timestamp = 1456778973;
// output
echo date('d M Y H:i:s',$timestamp);

Try this converter too http://freeonlinetools24.com/

Answer 4

That time stamp is is 9am GMT timezone, if you are in another timezone then you will need to adjust it accordingly.

http://php.net/manual/en/function.date-default-timezone-set.php

  date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');

or even better in your php.ini

http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.configuration.php

date.timezone="Europe/London"

Or you can use more specifically GMT instead of Europe/London (which has DST)
