Well, these options are certainly available to format the date/time however you want to.

Are you saying that if you select German, the *default* format should be changed to the proper German format? That sounds reasonable--could you tell me what that would look like? Should include both date and time.

I found that some of the German month names are incorrect.

March should be "März", not Mäerz
December should be "Dezember" not December

Another date "error":
In Germany we never use the date format MMM DD. Instead we use allways DD.MMM.  (Day Month)

The time format seems to be "wrong", too.  we don't use AM/PM. instead we use 24hr format. So we don't have any abbreviation for AM/PM wink.gif

Ok, I try:)
German months names:
Januar, Februar, März, April, Mai, Juni, Juli, August, September, November, Dezember

German Date Format:
12.04.02 or 12.04.2002 or 12.April...  never April, 12!

I think the best time format will just be the 24hr format without any AM/PM thing.


Great stuff, movabletype. Keep on  :)
