Blog module

Using the blog module, new posts are formatted to 1970, even if the date set in the admin was current. I've set the date format in Fuel to the UK pattern (d/m/Y), as well as an appropriate timezone in MY_config - is there a clash?

Setting the date_format to Y/m/d avoids this altogether, but is unfriendly.

That is because d/m/Y is not considered a valid strtotime format (m/d/Y is though):

Ah - yes I have come across that before.

I swapped '/' for '-' and it all works ok. You get lulled into a false sense of security seeing the format in the placeholders and even in the datepickers, and think it's alright.
