Below is changed function showdate, fixes a bug with daylight saving time.

Maybe it can be imported in next update (if)

Code Download source
// Format the date & time accordingly

function showdate($format, $val) {

   global $settings, $userdata;



   if (isset($userdata['user_offset'])) {

      $offset = $userdata['user_offset']+$settings['serveroffset'];

   } else {

      $offset = $settings['timeoffset']+$settings['serveroffset'];

   }

 // Correction for Daylight saving Time

 $dls = 0;

 if (date('I', $val+($offset*3600)) == 1){

 $dls = 3600;

 }



   if ($format == "shortdate" || $format == "longdate" || $format == "forumdate" || $format == "newsdate") {

      return format_date($settings[$format], $val+$dls+($offset*3600));

   } else {

      return format_date($format, $val+$dls+($offset*3600));

   }

}

It can be solved using showdate and set the correct server offset compensation. But fact is PF does not work with the time zone settings anymore

Code Download source
$lcmerid = explode('|', $locale['meridiem']);

PF 8 comes with a new function format_date for replacement strftime function, which is deprecated in PHP > 8.1

When I call strftime on my server, time is correct
When I call format_date, time is one hour difference (one houre before)
Timezone is GMT+1
Seems the new function does not work with the time zone.
I tested on different sites
