how can I change discourse timeline to a certain country?

Hi @yekta , welcome to the Meta!
Could you elaborate further on the problem you are facing?
Thanks!

hey there
I wanna change the dates, calender and time to my own country..
could you help me?

Hi there, you should be able to change your timezone by going to discourse.example.com/my/preferences/profile, scrolling down to Timezone and changing it from there.
Hope this helps!

You can edit translations too. In Finland Discourse’s way was a bit… foreign :rofl: so I changed those for fi-locale. Yeah I know, I should consider changing en, se etc, but because my forum is finnish only I didn’t bother.
