Comment (by aaugustin):

 In fact, time zone support isn't sufficient, because most sites won't have
 per-user time zones: it's a lot of work just to fix the "now" button in
 the admin. We still need the cosmetic fix in addition to the systemic fix.
 (That wasn't obvious at first; we did things in the right order.)

 There's a new attempt to fix this in #20663.

 I think we can consider this fixed at r17106, which addressed #2626.

 Indeed, this is fixed in the timezone support branch -- see "Multiple
 timezone support for datetime representation" thread on django-developers.

Comment (by dvanders):

 In the meantime I'm using this nasty nasty hack for my app (to convert
 time to CET).

 {{{
 $ diff  DateTimeShortcuts.js.bak DateTimeShortcuts.js
 48c48
 < now_link.setAttribute('href',
 "javascript:DateTimeShortcuts.handleClockQuicklink(" + num + ", new
 Date().strftime('" + get_format('TIME_INPUT_FORMATS')[0] + "'));");
 ---
 > now_link.setAttribute('href',
 "javascript:DateTimeShortcuts.handleClockQuicklink(" + num + ", new
 Date(new Date().getTime() + new Date().getTimezoneOffset() * 6 +
 360).strftime('" + get_format('TIME_INPUT_FORMATS')[0] + "'));");
 }}}

Comment (by adamnelson):

 @russelm agreed

 Just to clarify what this ticket is about: it narrows itself to saying
 that it's not 'now' if you're in UTC+8 and the time is saved as UTC+8 on a
 UTC-4 machine - that's 12 hours ago and is the nature of the problem in
 this ticket.

 I think there are a few solutions:

  1. Convert the timezone on submit.  This is effectively the type of thing
 #2626 would do - it shouldn't happen here and I'm only including this
 option so it's understood that I'm not advocating this.
  1. Show the current time according to the server next to the now button
 and use the server's tz when 'now' is pushed
  1. Show the offset according to the server next to the now button and use
 the server's tz when 'now' is pushed
  1. Give an option to easily disable the 'now' button
  1. Give an option to use server time for the admin datetime widget

Comment (by russellm):

 @adam - My point is that Django doesn't handle timezones well at the
 moment, and it's something that requires a systemic fix, not a cosmetic
 fix.

Comment (by adamnelson):

 @russelm The issue is that if you push now and you're in UTC+8, the server
 will save the time in UTC+8.  In the future, when the time is retrieved by
 another user, the server will use its timezone to render the time and it
 won't be the time at which you pushed 'now'.

Comment:

 @adam - I disagree. If I press "now", and the time comes up as anything
 other than UTC+8 (my timezone), that will be confusing.

 Ultimately, I suspect that this will end up being fixed as a result of
 addressing #2626. Leaving it as a separate DDN issue in case someone can
 come up with a better approach.
