Hi Chris,
You didn't understand. I have a \DateTime object, and I would like to
change the date and time to the current date and time = now.
Imagine you have a \DateTime object that was serialized and you would
like to “refresh” it, you need to $d->modify('now'). This is strictly
equivalent to $d->setTimestamp(time()) but in a more elegant way. But
the documentation says that “now” is ignored, and I would like to know
why because it is useful.
Thanks.

Hi Ivan,
$d = new \DateTime('+1 hour', new \DateTimeZone('Europe/Amsterdam'));
Is exactly the same as:
// Current timestamp with timezone
$d = new \DateTime(null, new \DateTimeZone('Europe/Amsterdam'));
// Add 1 hour to the timestamp with timezone
$d->modify('+1 hour');
This is what you would like to do right? As modifying the timestamp with
another timestamp would make no sense to me.
Kind regards,
Chris van Dam

Hi internals,
I would to modify a \DateTime object to the current time, thus I wrote
this:
$d = new \DateTime('+1 hour');
$d->modify('now');
It did not work. Why? Because the documentation
(http://php.net/datetime.formats.relative) says: ³Now - this is simply
ignored². Really? But the behavior is pretty straightforward isn't?
³modify to now² means ³set to the current date and time and let the
timezone unchanged².
Thoughts?
Best regards.
