Hi! You may have seen my previous thread about populating the standard @timestamp. I managed this although, the standard @timestamp shows the local time. So if the event in a log file says something was done at 13.00 the timestamp field will show 16.00. Is there anyway to fix this or shouldn't I tamper with this? Here is a picture for show. Notice difference between the timestamp under the "time" field and the timestamp under the "\_source" field. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/2/2aca2112f73adccfc5b6686c890c4bfb6f3cafbd.jpg) ---

The timestamp displayed by Kibana in your example probably has local timezone correction applied, i.e. the raw `@timestamp` field is 2015-06-21T11:15:00.000Z. This matches the input string. ---

Yes that is correct. How do you remove the timezone correction? ---

Making this configurable appears to be on the roadmap for Kibana 4.4. See [issue #1600](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/1600). ---

Wow okey. Strange that they haven't implemented it earlier. Oh well thanks for the help 🙂 ---
