I posted a query on here on this topic yesterday evening and it seems to have disappeared.  Did I do something wrong?

I am sure it was posted as I have a screen print of it.  It was 'Reply #11'.

Anyone any ideas what might have happened please?


Many thanks.

John.

It was all detailed in the posting I made yesterday evening - the one that disappeared.  Shall I post it again?

Cheers.

OK, here goes :-

Still having problems with the date format in YaBB 2.4 with this mod - it is behaving differently from the way it did in YaBB 2.1.

I have tried various settings in both Profile and Forum Settings but cannot get it to perform as it did in 2.1.

In 2.1 the settings are   :-

Forum Settings (2.1)



Profile Setting (2.1)



Event Calendar view (2.1)



In 2.4 the settings are   :-

Forum Settings (2.4)



Profile Setting (2.4)



Event Calendar view (2.4)



As far as I can see the relevant settings are the same in both versions but the Event Calendar view is different (and it's the view I had in 2.1 that I am trying to get to).

Any ideas please as to how I keep the dates in the rest of the Forum in the format 'Jun 5th, 2008 at 9:43am', whilst still getting the Event Calendar to show as Day/Month/Year?

Many thanks.

John.

But in the screenshots I gave, they are set as

in both 'Forum Settings' and 'Profile Setting' in both version 2.1 and 2.4 - however, in 'Event Calendar' the 'Goto' and 'Add Event' shows as Day/Month/Year in version 2.1 and Month/Day/Year in version 2.4 - see screen shots.

I would like to get it to behave in 2.4 like it did in 2.1.

Cheers.

Sorry, but as you can see from the screenshots I posted - my settings for the date in BOTH 2.1 and 2.4 are the same - however, the way that Event Calendar displays the 'Go To' and 'Add Event' is different in the two versions.  Do you agree that this is the case?

All I require is to get the same in version 2.4 as I got in 2.1.

Cheers.

The more I look at this one, the more I think that it is probably actually a problem with YaBB 2.1 rather than 2.4.

Logically, setting a 'Preset Time Format' (in Profile) of

should give dates in the form of Month/Day/Year (in the Event Calendar etc), however in 2.1 it didn't!  It gave Day/Month/Year.

I had not noticed that this was illogical, as it suited my purpose and I just didn't think about it .

I think the question I really should be asking is 'Can anyone tell me how I can  get  one of the 'Preset Time Format' options to be :-

This option is not offered at present.
I assume it would mean altering the code somewhere.

I have tried setting this up in the 'Custom Time Format' but cannot get the right format.

If there are no further suggestions on here, I will try posting it to 'Programming & Coding Board'.

Thanks to all those who have tried to help so far.

Cheers.

(Later!)

I tried altering the 'Custom Time Format' in 'Profile' to read :-

Which gives me :-

Exactly what I want! I thought I had cracked it   however, the format in the 'Go to' and 'Add Event' in Event Calendar is still Month/Day/Year .  It also gives the date in the Event details at the side of the Calendar as Quote:
, which seems a little strange as the dates in the '10 Most Recent Visitors' panel appear as expected -

As there is no option in 'Forum Settings' for a Custom Time Format I appear to be again, stuck!
