As a somewhat hacky solution, perhaps when posts are created you could check if the timestamp is exactly 12:00 AM. If it is, bump the minute up one. It only affects new posts and leaves the legacy ones alone.

I'm pretty sure there is a post about this but can't find it.

I think the reason is that when the "old forum" posts were copied across, they only had a date, and thus the time was set to zero. So rather than suggest that everyone posted at midnight, the time is suppressed if zero.

Topic says it all. I noticed this because one of my recent posts on another thread [1] only has the date part of the timestamp.

The dates and times for posts above are shown in Universal Co-ordinated Time (UTC).

To show them in your local time you can join the forum, and then set the 'time correction' field in your profile to the number of hours difference between your location and UTC time.
