    Hi Yuniar,

    I hope everything is well.

    I have a small problem, which hopefully can be fixed without to much work. In 2008 the entries of our forms were stored like this: 2008-12-08

    However, I only noticed it today, since I had to look up something, that it now shows entries like this: Jan 16

    How come? And can this be fixed, so it shows the entries like previously? E.g. 2009-01-16

    Also, since we are at it, is it possible to change the date completely? I want it to show 16-01-2009 (day-month-year) and I also do not want the entries to show stuff like this: 1 day ago, 2 weeks ago, etc. I just want the dates.

    Is this possible without messing current entries up? Cause we have over 400 entries already and we need them stored.

    Let me know!

    Regards,
    Michel

    Hi,

    Can you tell me, is there any customization have you made related to that format before ? Because by default machform have "m/d/Y" format for date element.
    Anyway you can change the view format by modify "entry-functions.php" file, go to around line 336 and you will see this code :

    $date_value = date("m/d/Y",strtotime($date_value));

    you can replace with this one 

    $date_value = date("Y-m-d",strtotime($date_value));

    and to change date created format, you should edit "manage_entries.php", go to around line 346, you will see this code 

    $form_data[$i][$j] = short_relative_date($form_data[$i][$j]);

    change it to

    $form_data[$i][$j] = date('Y-m-d',strtotime($form_data[$i][$j]));
