Date format suggestion - walter b - 12-20-2013 06:49 AM I respectfully suggest turning to a consistent date format: Please use either yyyy-mm-dd (recommended since backed by ISO) or dd.mm.yyyy (ISO reverse) but not zigzag yyyy-dd-mm as it is now. In particular using hyphens (instead of slashes) in said zigzag format is confusing and annoying IMHO since it leads on the wrong track. I can live with the AM/PM notation though. Thanks in advance. d:-) RE: Date format suggestion - Massimo Gnerucci - 12-20-2013 10:04 AM User CP - Your Profile - Edit Options RE: Date format suggestion - Didier Lachieze - 12-20-2013 10:05 AM Hi Walter, I don’t see any date in the yyyy-dd-mm format but I’ve customized the date and time options in my profile. On top of the page you have a link to your User Control Panel (User_CP), there with “Edit Options” you can customize the forum for you. Here is a snapshot of my Date and Time options for dates in dd-mm-yyyy format and time in 24h format: [attachment=36] RE: Date format suggestion - walter b - 12-20-2013 10:24 AM Thanks Massimo & Didier, I must have overlooked those options. Problem solved due to your support - just the ISO variant (2013-12-20) is not provided there. Good grief, these formats use to be so easily differentiable: 2013-12-20 = 20.12.2013 = 12/20/2013 d |
