Like it says 

Instead of: Today at 08:24:36 pm you would have Today at 20:24:36

While I'm at it can we have the time corrected too?

Or is it just my computer that tells me that ukCaving is an hour behind the real world.

That's down to you - the forum clock stays the same otherwise our international readers would be screwed up every time the UK does it's stupid +/- an hour crap.

- Go to "profile"
- Then go to "Look and Layout Preferences"
- Look for "Time Offset:"
- Over to the right is a box and a link that says "(auto detect)"
- Click the auto detect link
- The forum should now set the offset correctly
- Click the "change profile" button at the bottom right to store your settings.

Don't care either way.  I'm bilingual.

Am I missing something? If you choose a different time format in the Look and Layout Preferences section, you can choose 24 hour clock anyway, any of the formats which are HH:MM:SS (without a/pm at the end) will display things in 24 hour clock.

Unless of course that's only just been added.

No, I was

I never realised that you could do it locally.

I guess a global change to 24hr might be in order anyway since it's far more popular. Then anyone who prefers the old system could change back.
