I have a date in this format Fri, 15 Jan 2016 15:14:10 +0800
, and I want to display time like this 2016-01-15 15:14:10
.
What I tried is:
$test = 'Fri, 15 Jan 2016 15:14:10 +0800';
$t = date('Y-m-d G:i:s',strtotime($test));
echo $t;
But it is displaying date in this format: 2016-01-15 7:14:10
, it should be 2016-01-15 15:14:10
.
How can i do this?
Use H
instead:
$test = 'Fri, 15 Jan 2016 15:14:10 +0800';
$t = date('Y-m-d H:i:s',strtotime($test));
echo $t;
H: 24-hour format of an hour with leading zeros 00 through 23
G should be the same, but without leading zeroes though. I suspect that your PHP is set to a different timezone than +0800
. Can you confirm your timezone (date_default_timezone_get()
)?
EDIT
OP confirmed that his timezone was set to UTC, in which case it maskes perfect sense that it shows 7 in the morning, as date
uses PHPs default timezone.
If you want to "inherit" the Timezone, while getting more flexibility, you should switch to DateTime
:
echo (new DateTime($test))->format("Y-m-d H:i:s");
