 Description  « Hide
For Example:
If JIRA has been configured for German projects, users with a english profile will see German date and time formats.
That is very nonsequential and ungly.

Marco,

I think this will be done with JRA-9.

Cheers,
Nick

Nick,

I do not mean Timezones. Im talking about the time formats:
E.g.
German Complete Date/Time Format: dd. MMM yy HH:mm
Default Complete Date/Time Format: dd/MMM/yy hh:mm a

I'm not sure whether it would be fixed with issue JRA-9

See also the attached Screenshot.

Though Marco,

This should still display dates and times in the users locale. (The same format, but in different languages).
Are you saying, we should allow users to specify the format they want to see or that you should be able to specify a format for each locale? could get a little tricky.

Cheers,
Nick

Hi Nick,

I'm not sure whether I unterstood your commet right.

Do it already work in JIRA, that users get the time and date format based on their locales?
If yes, in our version it doesn't work.

If not, I think it make sense using a time and date format which is defined in the users locale.
That means, that each locale have to get its own definition of time and date format.

What do you think?

Greetings from Hamburg,
Marco

Marco,

If I veiw the created date for an issue when I have my locale set to English, i get Created: 17/Mar/06 11:08 PM Updated: Monday 08:07 PM . If I then change my locale to German, I get Erstellt: 07/Mrz/02 11:08 PM Aktualisiert: Montag 08:07 PM.

Or do you want define the actual format for each locale.

Cheers,
Nick

I think he wants a complete change of format. Simply translating results in having misleading date usage (yyyy-mm-dd, dd-mm-yyyy, mm.dd-yyyy and so on)

This is an example of how it would look, and how different it can look...

And I strongly disagree that this is a duplicate of JRA-9. If you read the description of the issue, it has nothing to do with the time zone, but only with the way the time is shown to the user.

Agreed Christian.
