How to change the date/time on posts

Posted: Tue Nov 13, 2018 12:01 am

I asked this question right after I joined, but I don't think I got an answer that helped, so I'll ask again.

This is what I see after I've posted something. It tells me didley about the date and time. Is there any way to change it?

At the top of the page, go to "Your Account" then in the drop down "Preferences". Once there, scroll down until you see what is pictured below. Mine is set for GMT-8 which is Pacific time, under that is the display format. Change yours to match mine and you should have a normal looking date and time. If you prefer a different format, feel free to Google php date() function to learn the different format options.

Thanks for that! It was driving me crazy, and for some reason, it had my username as the format. Weird.
