FAQ

  1. Do I still need to use the central function tx_timezones_pi1::formatDate($format, $tstamp); in my extension?
    No you don’t have to use this function anymore. It is still provided as a dummy function the will return the same date which it is given as a parameter. The timezone calculation is now session managed of PHP and the intl module.
