      @sdetweil Yep - did it several times to make sure!

      And the Mirror will show EST when I access it via a web browser!

        @drstang does setting the timezone config option adjust it ?

        https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/clock.html#configuration-options

        The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

          @BKeyport thanks but unfortunately that does not work either - it results in the clock module not even loading (unless there was something else I should have adjusted)…

          EDIT: I realized I changed the modules config initially, which didn’t work. But I changed the main config (duh - reading is key) and added the config/timezone line, which worked!! thank you!

            @drstang At least you can override it for now…

              Just updated my MM, clock is showing 18:13 when it’s 11:54…

                @drstang I don’t understand this, the code does

                		if (this.config.timezone) {
                			now.tz(this.config.timezone);		
                

                which means it only uses its own config values, not the global config.

                when I set it like this

                		{
                			module: "clock",
                			position: "top_left",
                			config:{
                				displaySeconds:false,
                				timezone:"UTC"
                			}
                		},
                

                it correctly changed the displayed time from 08 (us central time) to 13

                if I set it like this

                	timeFormat: 24,
                	units: "metric",
                	timezone:"UTC",
                	modules: [
                

                it did not change the displayed time (as expected)

                  @sdetweil Correction to your statement. timezone is set to null by default. timezone: null, - therefore, that if line would evaluate to false unless you override with timezone config item.

                  The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

                    @BKeyport correct,

                    so a ‘forced’ timezone would not be set

                    this is the same code as before.

                      @sdetweil said in Default Clock wrong after update:

                      which means it only uses its own config values, not the global config.

                      This is what I was correcting. ;)

                        @BKeyport but he said,

                        changing it in the module config did NOT work
                        but
                        changing it in the GENERAL config DID work…

                        and it was NOT set in the original config he was using prior to the upgrade
