Change your Rails time and date formats in i18n translation locales

Needed to tweak the time format from the default “Sat, 27 Sep 2014 17:32:10 +0000” to “September 27, 2014 at 17:32”. You can do this in config/locales/en.yml like so

en:
  site_name: "RobL"

  date:
    formats:
      default: "%Y-%m-%d"
      short: "%b %d"
      long: "%B %d, %Y"
  time:
    formats:
      default: "%B %d, %Y at %H:%m"
