Time displaying, menu bars : and colors. : Post your prompt (and .zshrc) here. No-one seems to use POSTEDIT for their setup so I thought I'd post mine to give people some more ideas. Here's what I've been using for some years which only uses normal and bold text. (Also note, generally the %s%u%m at the start of the PROMPT is redundant so it could be ripped it out if you use it).
