Hello,
I’m using EE3.1.36.5.P

I created an event and I indicates the start date of registration June 02, 2014. The end date of registration July 11, 2014. No worries so far.
But when I indicates the start event date (same as end date), and I record the event with the validation button, I’ve got several problems :

– if the start event date (same as end date) is August 05, 2014 : no worries.
– if the start event date (same as end date) is September 05, 2014 : once validated the start event date change in September 05, 1 !!!!
– if the start event date (same as end date) is October 09, 2014 : once validated the start event date change in October 09, 201 !!!!
– if the start event date (same as end date) is November 07, 2014 : once validated the start event date change in November 07, 20 !!!!
– if the start event date (same as end date) is December 11, 2014 : once validated the start event date change in December 11, 20 !!!!
– iden for January, February.

For March, April, May, June, July, August no worries.
How ca I resolve this please ?

Hi Bruno,

If you go to Dashboard -> Settings -> General.

Can you check that your timezone setting is set to the city nearest to you and not using UTC times.

If you temporarily switch to the default twentyfourteen theme does the same happen?

Hi ! Thanks you for your reply.
I’m not using UTC times.
The problem is the same when I switch to the default theme.

The problem I described happens to the backend of WordPress. It’s when a create an event !
Everything happens as if eventespresso did not accept a date format with more than 15 characters!
Can you help me please ?

Sorry, I did not properly checked and with the default twentyfourteen theme everything works. So, it’s probably a problem with my theme no ?
Have you any idea how to fix it?

Hi Bruno,

Thanks for testing it with a default theme. As it works fine there, then yes it is most probably a theme issue. How to fix it? Well it depends on what the theme is actually doing!

What is the theme called and who made it?

Have you made sure the theme is up to date?

The problem came from the date format. I had tried everything except the format Y-m-d. This is the only format that works well. Again thank you for the help.
