Header of Date Picker is acting strange

@missveronicatv

But it doesn’t work if I change it to ‘d/m/Y’ in that code. It’s still showing ‘Y/m/d’ on the website. Does that mean it has to be changed as well somewhere else in the code?

@jayme2604

No, I changed to this format and it’s OK displayed.

$value = date( 'Y-m-d', $unixtimestamp );

@missveronicatv

Strange that it works for you, I have tested it, but changing that value doesn’t change anything. To me it’s still showing the “-” sign in the date picker field instead of the “/”. Also, if I would change it from “Y/m/d” to “d/m/Y” which I want to achieve, then also nothing happens.

These fields are on the registration form, maybe there is a difference in registration and profile form?

Update: I can confirm that the change works only on the profile form. So, the issue is only on the registration form.

@missveronicatv

What can I do to fix this temporarily for the registration form?

@jayme2604

Ask your web hosting support if they are using any security/firewall software tools like “ModSecurity” for your site?

@missveronicatv

Well, once I change the date format as per your earlier suggestion, the date format is then correct on the profile form. However, this adjustment doesn’t work for the registration form. I think this is has nothing to do with my host. Does it work for you on both forms?

@jayme2604

The display date format at registration is set by the JavaScript in your Date Picker.

This file
.../plugins/date-time-picker-for-contact-form-7/assets/js/datetimepicker.js

Change lines 64/65 to your desired date format.

@missveronicatv Thanks a lot for your support, it works great now (with the default one for me)
