I had a problem reported to me that the Dotnetnuke forum was displaying the time on forum posts at what looks to be GMT -0.  You use to be able to modify the timezone for the forum but for some reason you can no longer do this.  I did some digging around and found a SQL solution to the issue.

1. Login to your site with "Host" level access.
2. Go to Host | SQL
3. Paste the following text into the textbox:
   
   UPDATE ModuleSettings
   SET SettingValue = 'False'
   WHERE SettingName = 'EnableTimeZone'
4. Click the "Execute" button.
5. NOTE: It took a little while for the update to show up on the site (in my case I came back two hours later and it was updated).
6. NOTE: The SQL Update does an update on all Forum modules that might be installed.   If you wish to be specific set the WHERE clause to match a ModuleID.
