Hi there HP team.

The calendar date formats changes across the calendars (Vendor, Listing calendars and the Dashboard). I’ve checked and the WP date settings are set to d/m/Y but that doesn’t seem to get carried over to the HP calendars. Another issue is the American format of month-day-year and some of us, very few I suspect, live outside of America and thus use British format of day-month-year.

Is there an easy way to standardise the date display across the calendars and to change the format to British?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

The calendar should also reflect these changes.

Please disable third-party plugins and customizations (if there are any) and check if this issue persists. If you use a caching plugin, make sure that caching is disabled for logged-in users.

If this issue persists, please send temporary WP access to [support@hivepress.io](mailto:support@hivepress.io) with details for reproducing this issue, and we’ll check it (please send only the link, without login and password). You can create a temporary access link using this plugin [Temporary Login Without Password – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org](https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password).
