Hey everyone!

 

Today anonymous sent me a message. The time shows 2:03 PM. But I live in Virginia, where it was 5:03 PM. I wish we could set time zones so that we can get the correct time.

 

Thanks,

Kam

@Kam 

The time zone your PM's show is controlled by the time zone set in your profile, see: My Settings - Microsoft Tech Community

 

The default is Pacific Time because that is where the community is currently hosted. Maybe in a future release we should direct people to choose their time zone on first sign in or possibly as part of the onboarding workflow.

Cool,

 

I just tested you sending me a PM and me replying.

 

The times in your profile were EST and the times in my Profile were PST, which is what I expected. Are you seeing something different?
