Unable to convert UTC to PST when website is in 000webhost

Hello!

We are working on a project and one of its features is to store the login and logout times of a user when he/she access the website. It worked fine in localhost but when we transferred it on the the hosting site the login times were converted into UTC is there a way to convert it back to Philippine Standard Time?

Thank You!

What we did:
The Login time script:

“`
<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set(‘display_errors’, 1);

include(‘../server.php’);

$id = $_SESSION[‘user’][‘id’];
//var_dump($_SESSION);
$dataSend = $_POST[‘dataSend’];

date_default_timezone_set(‘Asia/Manila’);
//$date = date(“Y-m-d”);
$date=date(“n-j-Y”);

date_default_timezone_set(‘Asia/Manila’);
$time = date(“h:i:A”);

//create connection
$status = ‘1’;
//check connection

//start of the new script
$sql = “INSERT INTO attendancetracking (id, time_in, Room, status)
VALUES ($id, NOW(), ‘$dataSend’, $status)”;
//end of the new script

if ($db->query($sql) === TRUE) {
echo “new attendance was created”;

} else {
echo “2: ” . $sql . “<br>” . $db->error;
//echo”2″;
}

$db->close();

?>
“`

We also tried another version using “`SET time_zone“` but still no luck
this:

“`
<?php

include(‘../server.php’);

$id = $_SESSION[‘user’][‘id’];
//var_dump($_SESSION);
$dataSend = $_POST[‘dataSend’];

$sql = “SET time_zone = ‘+08:00′”; ***we also tried replacing +08:00 with Asia/Manila but still no luck***
$result = $db->query($sql);
//var_dump($db->error);

//create connection
$status = ‘1’;
//check connection

//start of the new script
$sql = “INSERT INTO attendancetracking (id, time_in, Room, status)
VALUES ($id, NOW(), ‘$dataSend’, $status)”;
//end of the new script

if ($db->query($sql) === TRUE) {
echo “new attendace was created”;

} else {
echo “2: ” . $sql . “<br>” . $db->error;
//echo”2″;
}

$result = $db->query($sql);

$db->close();

?>
