"Recent Alerts" shows no results due to incorrect host time

In case this helps someone else....

I have Nagios Fusion connected to two Nagios XI servers. I noticed that the "Recent Alerts" page shows no results even when there are plenty of them if I check each server individually. The "Top Alert Producers" page shows results as expected.

What I then realized was that the Nagios Fusion VM didn't have NTP installed and running by default, and the time was off by 6 hours. I installed ntpd, configured it to start on boot, and modified /etc/ntp.conf. Now my date is correct and the "Recent Alerts" page is displaying normally.
