    I would like the time/date used to tag the entries to be in my local time zone. Also have a choice of date format e.g. dd/mm/yyyy) rather than the American order.

    Hi,

    Submission date/time is actually based on your account's time zone settings.

    Here are the steps to change:

    1. Login to your account.

    2. Click on the person looking icon and then click on "Account"

    Thanks David - that's helpful.

    Do you also know if it is possible to change the date format - I couldn't see that anywhere?

    Cheers…Jon
