Displaying local date and time in message titles

Feedback & Thoughts
1

I see that the onehack.st website is built using the open-source DISCOURSE platform.
Is it possible to change the way messages are displayed so that the local date and time are displayed?
Why, because when I read a message, the information is displayed, for example, that it was created 10 hours ago. I am interested in the date the message was displayed and the GMT or UTC time. Messages come from all over the world and are probably synchronized with the date and time of your server. But we do not know in which region your server is located.
There can be a 24-hour difference between 2 messages sent from opposite sides.
I live in ROMANIA - GMT+3.
Any message platform displays the current date and time at which messages were sent.
It is also important because my reply sent at 10 am GMT is also delayed by 12 hours plus or minus compared to the original message!!!

With much respect,
thank you

Good suggestion — but the times you see are already in your own clock (Bucharest, GMT+3), not the server’s, so “10 hours ago” means 10 hours ago for you. Just hover the timestamp and it shows the exact local date + time it was posted.

A forum leads with “latest,” so fresh posts stay relative on purpose — and older ones already flip to a full date on their own.

Want every date shown in full? Set your zone in Preferences → Profile → Timezone and you’re done. :slightly_smiling_face:
