Hey all,

Don't you hate the GMT + or - time zone listings in nuke? Well I do too, so I spent some time to type out the time zones with descriptions. You can plug this into your language files and away you go.

For example, this can replace the code in /modules/Forums/language/lang-main.php (around line 900) file to change the drop down list values for times zones:

$lang['All_times'] = 'All times are %s'; // eg. All times are GMT - 12 Hours (times from next block)
$lang['-12'] = '(GMT -12:00 hours) Eniwetok, Kwajalein';
$lang['-11'] = '(GMT -11:00 hours) Midway Island, Samoa';
$lang['-10'] = '(GMT -10:00 hours) Hawaii';
$lang['-9'] = '(GMT -9:00 hours) Alaska';
$lang['-8'] = '(GMT -8:00 hours) Pacific Time (US & Canada)';
$lang['-7'] = '(GMT -7:00 hours) Mountain Time (US & Canada)';
$lang['-6'] = '(GMT -6:00 hours) Central Time (US & Canada), Mexico City';
$lang['-5'] = '(GMT -5:00 hours) Eastern Time (US & Canada), Bogota, Lima, Quito';
