Hi,

I have a couple of questions regarding forums.

Is it possible in user preferences to change time format from British/American 12 hour AM/PM style to 24 hour format?

Is it possible to change in user preferences date format from American style MM-DD-YYYY to other formats. My preferred is YYYY-MM-DD.

Is it possible to change forum interface language from English to some other?

1. It is not possible to change it per account, but it is possible to change it globally for the entire forum. I will consider changing it to the 24 hour format, however, because I happen to like it

2. Sorry- also only globally.

3. Yes, but we currently only have English installed. What language is on your mind?

Sorry, I was not specific to the very end. I also was thinking about changing interface language on account level.

Anyway another language was just my wish, while date format is something which confuses me all the time...

The answer to that is still yes- you can change languages on the account level, if more than one is installed.

The vBulletin team should consider adding the date and time display options, however- perhaps I should contact them with this suggestion.

That's funny -- I always thought I was able to change those settings. I've been able to do it on other fvBulletin forums (maybe they use plug-ins).

I searched for such a plugin, but I didn't find one- if you know of one, please let me know.

As far as I remember, however, you can only select your timezone, and not the actual time format...

Maybe it wasn't vBulletin. But if it wasn't, it was a pretty good imitation. I'll still look into a plugin, however.
