    You may have noticed that the post date on certain pages is now the same format as forum posts.
    • A moment ago (within the last minute)
    • X minutes ago (within the last hour)
    • Today at 00:00 AM/PM
    • Yesterday at 00:00 AM/PM
    • Day at 00:00 AM/PM (within the last week)
    • Abbreviated Month, numerical Day, Year
    This user-friendly format as been applied to Beer/Place ratings/reviews, the main Beers page, and Trading pages. We'll apply to other pages as needed.

    And yesterday we addressed a long-time user request by applying an update that utilizes your selected timezone. The default for accounts is UTC, however, this can be changed under your account preferences.

    Just a small update to create a more consistent user experience.

    Enjoy.

    Fixed a bug that caused the post date to not be in sync when displaying recent items around midnight in your selected timezone.
