Roller timezones

[Br...@alltel.com]

Hi All

I have a team member that is in India and he is curious about what
timezone to choose.  Here is his question:

Well, out of curiosity, I have question - from where you took dropdown
list for timezone?
It is not having entry for Asia/Mumbai,Asia/Chennai and Asia/Delhi.
It does have entries for Asia/dili and Asia/Calcutta(which should be
asia/Kolkatta).

Does anyone know what I can tell him to choose for a timezone?

Re: tag that contains more than one word?

We're using the '_' (underscore) character on our Roller installation.
 Seems the norm for tagging.

HTH,

Richard

tag that contains more than one word?

[Guy Katz <gk...@allot.com>]

This is probably not specific to roller but still...
The roller user guide states that tags should be separated by space
character. 
How can I use a 2 word tag (or even more)?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, it's just a raw hit counter.

No. I'd like to see some stats improvements in Roller, but until then
I'd recommend using Google Analytics or something like that if you
want a more accurate count.

Hi all;

does the $site.getHotWeblogs macro returns all hits including spiders, bots etc...?

if so, is there a way to filter it? or dealing with not showing those hits?

thanks.

That list of timezones is created by reading all timezones available
from the Java VM on which Roller is running. So, if your timezone is
missing this is a but in the Java VM and probably not in Roller.

Generally, he should choose the timezone that most closely represents
where he is located. For example, my blog server is located in Oregon
in the Pacific timezone, but I live in North Carolina in the Eastern
timezone -- so I pick Eastern as the timezone for my Roller user and
my Roller blog.
