I have figured out how to display times on the calendar (Calendar module) in am/pm format, but would like to also have them entered in am/pm rather than 24-hour format. Is there a way to implement this easily, or (more likely) a setting I am missing in one of the configuration pages?

I am using the Date and Calendar modules. In my "Event" content type, the date input widget is set to "Select List". The content creation page looks like this:

  Year *  Month *  Day *  Hour *  Minute *
  2012    07       01     23      09

What I would like to see is this:

  Year *  Month *  Day *  Hour *  Minute * AM/PM *
  2012    07       01     11      09       PM

In the Date and Time configuration, all formats are set to display as am/pm. The times appear as am/pm in all other circumstances on the site except for the date entry field on the node creation page.

Thanks to anyone who can shed light on this.

not sure why your date widget doesn't already show am/pm. I just set date.module up and it defaulted to the am/pm setting.

I know this is an old issue at this point but I recently had the same question and found the solution:

I your content type find the date field and go to edit - on the edit page you will see "More settings and values", click to expand that group and the date input configurable field called "Date entry options" will appear. Configure that as needed.
