Date format option

[erroldekock]

In South Africa we use a date format like the UK and Europe where we display dd/mm when the year is not used. Both churchinfo and churchcrm use the normal US standard of mm/dd. This is confusing when the date is 02/06 but obvious when displaying 05/17. To fix this in my production environment for the church directory I modified the PHP to print dd/mm in the report. There are 3 or 4 places in the file where this needs to be done but it is a problem when new releases come out as I have to restore my fix or merge with the new code. Could we have a date format flag to set this?

but my recommendation is to make the date format a setting and update each page that displays dates to use that setting.

I am now at gitter.im. I would be happy with that enhancement as a date format setting

These config items have been built, but we still need to find / replace all places where we have hardcoded date formats
