I would like to use date format: yyyy-mm-dd (so I have this time format in my settings), but redmine is displaying probably the browser's default langaue date format - see screenshots.

Maybe a settings to not use browsers data picker would solve the problem?

#5 Updated by Luc Luc almost 6 years ago

Yes, making native date&time pickers optional (or just not use them at all) would be great.

There is absolutely no way for me to get ISO8601 date format (YYYY-MM-DD) with Chrome's/Chromium's native date&time pickers.
Also, with native ones, there are inconsistencies between the settings, displayed date values and date&time pickers (see attachments).

Thanks,
Luc

Maxim Krušina, as a temporary solution I ended up reverting c418fab8a76b7672c4f341fb7c3e203ae92b50c0 - Use HTML5 date input fields instead of text fields with jquery ui date pickers (#19468) and everything is back to normal for me.

Thanks,
Luc

Version 3.3.3 is still affected by this issue.

Same problem on 3.4.6 (two years later); basically after each Redmine update we have to touch the code and disable native date pickers.
Patch #19468 is so unfortunate, it makes all date related fields inconsistent and confusing.

I see there are not many people complaining about this issue - is it some simple workaround for it? Any suggestions would be more than welcome.

Thanks,
Luc

The patch proposed in #31300 solves the problem (applied to version 4.2).
Finally consistent ISO date format again without constantly reverting old patches.
Thank you.
