comics posting early

Post by Deluded »

I add comic to my ftp as soon as their done so I don't have to worry about updates, but ever since the switch if I have more than 1 comic in holding the first one posts on time, and the others post every day following.

ex.

This weeks comics

20060126.jpg

20060124.jpg loaded on time on the day it was supposed to,
but 20060126.jpg loaded today the 25th.

And the calendar link even displays it as tomorrow's update. But still it's up a day early.

To my knowledge I have done everything right. is there something I'm missing.

Your time is much appreciated.

Are you adding them to /workspace/comics or /public_html?

What is your update offset in siteadmin?

You should have it set to TODAY instead of TOMORROW, which updates early.

It the new Siteadmin, IIRC I have it listed a bit better, but I still think something needs to be done about this mistake. At some point in the future I may change this to "target" update time, take the current date and time and have a "in X hours" for it to make more sense.
