Jeroen, I have just changed date format to dd/mm/yyyy on my testing environment and validation worked on join form - I was not able to register without filling in required field of "Date" type. Can you explain how I can reproduce your issue?

Jeroen, did you change the date settings via the Admin Panel:

admin/settings/main settings/time settings/date format

select day/month/year

Time Zone your country/state
Use realative Time Tick/untick
Use Military Time Ditto

Finance: Correct currency

Save

yes john i dit it.

whats happening is that

when i wanna make date of birth dd/mm/yyyy join form shows all ok

but when i fil in my personal date then ... klick register.

never go further .. says (Required)

never pass the validator.

is it posible that the changed date_time.php is modified to

 public static function formatSimpleDate( $timeStamp, $onlyDate = false )

    {

        $militaryTime = (bool) OW::getConfig()->getValue('base', 'military_time');

        $language = OW::getLanguage();

        if ( !$timeStamp )

        {

            return '_INVALID_TS_';

        }

        $month = $language->text('base', 'date_time_month_short_' . date('n', $timeStamp));

        //$at = $language->text('base', 'date_time_at_label');

        if ( $onlyDate )

        {

            return ( date('y', $timeStamp) === date('y', time()) ) ?

                 strftime("%a, %d.%m.%Y", $timeStamp) :

                 strftime("%a, %d.%m.%Y", $timeStamp);

        }

        return ( date('y', $timeStamp) === date('y', time()) ) ?

            ( $militaryTime ? strftime("%a, %d.%m.%Y, %H:%M", $timeStamp) : strftime("%a, %d.%m.%Y, %I:%M%p", $timeStamp) ) :

            ( $militaryTime ? strftime("%a, %d.%m.%y, %H:%M", $timeStamp) : strftime("%a, %d.%m.%Y, %I:%M%p", $timeStamp) );

    }

    /*     * p, $onlyDate = null )

     * Returns formated date string/literal date string for provided time stamp.

     *          `today` | $onlyDate = true

     *          `yesterday, 15:48[am/pm]`

     *          `yesterday` | $onlyDate = true

     *          `Jan 17 '09, 11:07[am]`

     *          `Oct 25 '09, 08:09[pm]`

find the problem here is my answer

change /ow_utlities/date_time php

      if ( $onlyDate )    

    {            

return ( date('y', $timeStamp) === date('y', time()) ) ?              

   strftime(" %d %b %Y", $timeStamp) :            

   /* %d is dag %b is month jan,feb,mrt   **/

$month . strftime(" %e '%y", $timeStamp);
        }
        return ( date('y', $timeStamp) === date('y', time()) ) ?      

      $month . ( $militaryTime ? strftime(" %e, %H:%M", $timeStamp) : strftime(" %e, %I:%M%p", $timeStamp) ) :  

          $month . ( $militaryTime ? strftime(" %e '%y, %H:%M", $timeStamp) : strftime(" %e '%y, %I:%M%p", $timeStamp) );
