I have set up $wgLocaltimezone and I get it right; when I save a page, it takes the time I've set up in $wgLocaltimezone.
However, when I assign a page with ~~~~, my signature always takes the CST (Central Standard Time); and unfortunately that doesn't work for me.
Does someone know where should I set up, in order to get the local PC time into my signatures?
Signatures use the system's configured timezone. On Unix/Linux you can generally set this by changing the TZ environment variable in LocalSettings.php, for instance:
putenv("TZ=Europe/Berlin");
A sitewide default timezone is used here rather than the individual user's preference or local version to keep things consistent. If you have a page full of signatures, and they're all in different timezones, it's pretty hard to mentally keep track of what was before what.
