#35430: Documentation about timezone is misleading -----------------------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: younes-chaoui | Owner: nobody Type: Uncategorized | Status: new Component: Uncategorized | Version: 5.0 Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 0 Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | -----------------------------------------+------------------------ Official documentation says : {{{ When support for time zones is enabled, Django stores datetime information in UTC in the database, uses time-zone-aware datetime objects internally, and translates them to the end user’s time zone in templates and forms. }}}
This is not True. In templates (including admin panel), Django uses TIME_ZONE setting instead of end user's timezone. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/35430> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
