Are you referring to the Date Field? </p> <p>Prior to 1.6.1 the Date Field wasn't honoring the settings that you configure in the Date Field options for the format. It was always using the yyyy-mm-dd format. Now the date field stores the date when creating a post in the option that you configure in the date field itself. So you need to select the format in the date field on your form. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/date-format-when-using-gf-to-create-a-post#post-40806 Fri, 11 Nov 2011 06:45:44 +0000 arajcany 40806@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>Previous to my last update to 1.6.1 the date format when creating a post from a form was yyyy-mm-dd. It appears that it has now switched to mm/dd/yyyy or dd/mm/yyyy. This is creating problems because any new post that are being created have the wrong date because of the translation between the date formats.</p> <p>I am having problems in verifying this because today is 11/11/2011. i.e. this date is the same for mm/dd/yyyy (US format) and dd/mm/yyyy (Australian format).</p> <p>Could you please check it out.</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Andrew </p>
