Change forum data format

I am unable to change the forum date format from US (mm/dd/yy) to rest of the know universe format (dd/mm/yy or yyyymmdd).

Any ideas anyone?

    Millennium  SmartyTrousers This is strange!

    I am logged into the web site Community Forum and dates are shown in standard format. The first post on the thread shows as ‎06-11-2024 05:27 PM (I copied and pasted the content)

    Is this possibly linked to the browser default in some way? I agree that the only language showing is English(US) but time zone can be changed.

    (Who knows, English (US) may become the only option soon after the events of the last few days !! 🤣)

      Weird. I mainly access the Community using Safari on my iPhone, but have also just tried from Chrome on my work Windows laptop. Both devices have all region/language settings set to UK / UK English, but both show dates on this site in the American format (so, for example, the timestamp on your latest post is '‎11-07-2024 08:51 AM').

    It's a fair point.. the only language option available in the preferences at the moment is 'English (US)'.. presumably if the powers that be do what's required to add 'English (UK)' (and set it as the default for all users, what with this being a UK mobile network) we would then have correctly formatted dates? YulianK
