 * Hi – I have a time field on my Gravity Form that is mapped to a time field in
   a Pod custom post type. The time format type is set to 12 hour and the time format
   is set to 4:32 PM (also tried with 04:32 PM).
 * I’ve tried a number of other settings and get this validation error when trying
   to submit the form with an MM value of 00. For example, 12:00 PM:
 * > Time was not provided in a recognizable format: “12:0 pm”
 * If MM starts with a 0 (e.g. 12:05 PM) always get the error.
    if MM is greater
   than 9 (e.g. 12:30 PM), the form validates.
 * When I turn the Pods Feed off in the Gravity form, the time field validates as
   expected with a 12:00 PM time.
 * Any ideas? Is there a setting I’m missing somewhere?

 * Also, just found that even though the form validates with a 12:30 PM value, the
   pod value in the time field is empty.

 * I resolved with a text field in Pods, not a date type field… but not work properly
   because the date format is not localizated.
 * I input a spanish dd/mm/yy date, and I receipt a english date in pods yy/mm/dd

 * If you’re still experiencing this issue, you should add this as a bug report 
   for the Gravity Forms plugin. It makes sure we get the proper information collected,
   including your form template:

 * We can’t work bug reports through the forums.
