Time format Issue. You probably/may have noticed the time and date display in posts has defaulted to "Time Format" except for new posts. Dante and I are working on it. However :thumb-up: I've discovered a workaround for now that will fix it but for you only..
Edit your member profile Look and Layout. In the time format box/field enter %a %d%b %Y %I:%M %p (or click the ? button next to it and make your own combo, or select a format from the drop down list) then select change profile. You'll need to refresh to see the change BTW.

Thanks for troubleshooting this, Richard!
I was able to get mine to work the way you described. :thumb-up:
Now, to find out how to fix the default values for everyone
-
I tried changing the defaults, and saving/changing back, that didn't work :facepalm: . I think there's a disconnect (config) to the file that stores the setting(s) (Theme ?) (which I edited twice and saved each time) and what's needing to retrieve it (it's looking elsewhere it seems ?)

Thanks Richard, this worked for me!!!!

No worries :thumb-up: , we have a couple of band aides LOL. Welcome to the depot :wave:
-
Just discovered this - worked perfect! :)

:thumb-up:
Hey Dante, we still need to fix this properly :facepalm:
-
Aha! so, just what did you change in the configs? PHP.NET, unless modified, should do this automatically - but to be fair, I do not have a running forum in front of me to check out, so..
Did you upgrade the SMF software? Did you upgrade something on the Linux OS, or rather, did the hosting provider?
-
Mmm or is it deeper than that LoL. My suspicion (from a long while ago :facepalm: ) is that it happened after Dante moved the forum within his "hosted" directory structure (I suspect in here lies the problem :dunno: ). The SMF version is the latest available, the OS :dunno: .
-
Well, I'd love to go poking around - the forum kindof used to be my back yard.. :'(
My apartment exodus is somewhat taxing to the mind, else I could simply do it through Remote Viewing 8)
-
Yeah, I probably made some mistakes when I installed this SMF forum. I am just dangerous enough to make it work, but I have no idea how to rectify the issue.
-
Hey Dante, hey at least it works :thumb-up: . We'll get it sorted at some point, for now at least we have a workaround.
-
Thanks Admin its been bugging me not knowing dates.
-
No worries bunkyloo :wave: , we'll get round to fixing it one day (hey Dante :thumb-up: ).
-
I've noticed that with today's (Tue, August 13) replies there's a date of the post, or rather a signature: "Today at XX:XX". Does that mean the pesky Time Format issue has been rectified?
-
I don't think so :dunno: , I registered a new user not long ago and it still needed the fix for him to get dates etc correct. At some point Dante will get around to a total fresh clean install on his server and then I suspect the time format and a few other bugs will go away. Not to mention a deprecated function that keeps filling up the error logs :facepalm: .
