Not a HB Issue, but just a general forums question

How do I change the display setting for the post times to 12hr format instead of 24hr format. I tried looking into the settings on the forums and saw no option there.

I found out how to on the #TBF app on android. Swipe left to show the list, click on the settings and ensure the "use 24 hour time" box is not checked. Searching now for you guys on the regular forums.

I'm actually asking about the desktop version, this is really handy though. Thanks!

Hi,

you can't do this. Time displayed is set on a global level for the desktop version.
Only workaround would be to add a new language setting to the board with 12h time code or install an additional plugin.
This way you could use for example GER 24H format and UK 12h format.

Because we're based in Germany we decided to go with the 24h format for everyone.

Hi, TricksAnthem,

BotOperator is saying its stuff that would have to be changed on forum-server side. He indicates a new module would need to be installed to make such a feature available.

To continue with the thought... the forum-server team would allow additional non-critical modules to be installed. Modules are limited to the absolute minimum required to run the forum, since each module slows the forum performance, and adds security issues. Performance is a major concern due to the constant, and incredibly heavy DDoS we're always under.

In short, the ability to select 12H vs 24H clocks will not be available on the Buddy Forums.

cheers,
