   First of all: this is a great tool!

   There are some things that are not really suited for the European market here. I already found the modifications for a more European address format but the same thing goes for time fields and phone numbers.

   * Europeans tend to use a 24h time format without AM/PM.
   * Phone numbers in the most European countries have only two groups of digits (here in .NL it's 2-8 or 3-7 or 4-6 so to suit all possibilities I would need a group of max. 4 digits followed by a group of max. 8 digits.

   Is it possible to add these possibilities (like already done with the date field), or release a patch for them in the forum?

   Thanks in advance.

   Sorry, those two would require pretty much code modifications.
   Thanks for the requests though, it has been noted into our feature request list.

   It's not that many code modifications.
   In export_entries.php, manage_entries.php, and include/entry-functions.php look for date("h:i:s A", ... and date("h:i A" and change them to "H:i:s" and "H:i" respectively. (There are 3 x 2 occurences)

   Around line 810 in includes/view-functions.php find the lines stating
   

   <select class="element select" style="width:4em;" id="element_{$element->id}_4" name="element_{$element->id}_4">
   ...
   <label>AM/PM</label>

   and put HTML comments around it (<!-- ... -->)
   then add the line
   

   <input type="hidden" id="element_{$element->id}_4" name="element_{$element->id}_4" value="" />

   and you've got european time format.

   Oh. Don't forget to remove the line
   

   $rules[$element_name_4]['required'] = true;

   around line #400 in post_functions.php
