Date_recorded format

Hi,

My WordPress date format is ‘d/m/Y’ and I have the same issue.
When I input 01/02/2013 (01 Feb 2013) in admin page I see 01/02/2013 in [pdb_record] page but whenever I “SAVE YOUR CHANGE” the date toggle between 01/02/2013 and 02/01/2013 and so on.

In admin screen I can’t input 15/01/2013 or 01/15/2013.

Best Regards

This is what the “strict date format” setting is for. The way PHP works, it is easily confused by dates with slashes. If you don’t use slashes, there is no problem, but if you want to use slashes (and you’re not using the American style notation), you probably have to use the strict date format setting.

Note that you mus be using PHP version 5.2 or later for this to work.

What I don’t understand is that the date recorded and date updated are internal fields, meaning that there is no direct input by anyone. Still they give a different date format.

My WP is set to date format 12/01/2013

I changed the settings to strict date format, but still in the record the dates are different. They show both correctly in the Admin column.

The internal date field are stored differently in the database, so there is a difference in how they get displayed.

I see that there is a problem in how those internal dates are displayed in the admin record edit screen. Something I need to fix, fo sure.

Here is the screenshot of how the dates display…

Eva-Maria,

Thanks for that, I have a fix for this in the next update. The data is getting stored correctly, it’s just a matter of it not displaying properly.
