Forum's time is off

My host had an issue with the server and since they fixed it, the forum's time is 23h ahead off the actual time.
I checked the server's time and it's the actual one so I can't understand why the forum doesn't have it.

I might be able to fix the forum's time but it has hundreds new messages each day so if I do so, I imagine there will be a conflict with the posts' time and their ID in their topics. Is there a way to fix it without having to close the forum during 23h?

Thank you.

1st, check forum timezone.

2nd, check overall time offset.

I guess the time has been fixed by itself since my last post and I just noticed the year was off too. The forum was not off by 23h but with 2 years in the past.
Everything seems fine in each topics with posts in the right order, the only problem is the time displayed for each posts.

Example with this topic:
http://www.mustangv8.com/fr/votre-mustang-et-vous/maxou%27s-saleen/msg664832/#msg664832

« Réponse #540 le: 22 novembre 2014, 00:29:44 »
Followed by:
« Réponse #541 le: 28 novembre 2012, 12:49:25 »
and
« Réponse #549 le: Aujourd'hui à 16:40:34 »

It's not great but I can live with that.
Thank you. :)

You can change it by using "Default time format".

The value saved by SMF for the date is a number "1354103365" (November 2012) so unless I modify those values inside the database, I doubt I can fix those posts. Am I wrong? ???
