BLOG date issue

Hawkeye64

When a BLOG post is made to the fuel_blog_posts table, I get the following:

post_date: 2015-08-06 08:14:00
date_added: 2015-06-08 08:14:54
last_modified: 2015-06-08 12:18:55

I tried changing the date on the update page using the date picker, but it still comes out wrong. I'm in Canada, so our computers are set to dd/mm/YYYY format. Anyway, looks like date_added and last_modified are doing it right, but post_date is probably hard-coded to american style.

Try changing the date format globally in the fuel/application/config/MY_config.php file.

Yes, I already did that:

$config['date_format'] = 'd/m/Y';

I figured since this is in a different format than the database isusing that it was coming from somewhere else.

Ahh... dd/mm/YYYY isn't recognized by the strtotime function as a proper format but I believe dd-mm-YYYY is:
