Easy Populate 1.2.5.7.csv not Importing items due to MySQL error 1292: Incorrect date

[dimsumgurl]

Hello!

I am currently using v1.3.9h ( I am currently working on upgrading on a test Data base but still keeping main one alive and new items just arrived!)

I didn't have problems with this before... so I don't know why I suddenly am now.

                        metatags_products_name_status    =    '1',
                        metatags_model_status            =    '1',
                        metatags_price_status            =    '1',
                        metatags_title_tagline_status    =    '1' 

SO then I added a new column called v_date_avail

and added 10/26/2016 23:45

still import problems with same error message

So then I replaced v_date_avail with v_date_available

10/26/2016 23:45

STILL doesn't work.... same error message

I have troubled shoot as many angles as I can. I changed date formats

2016/10/26 23:45
10/26/2016 23:45
26/10/2016 23:45

I tried to set 1 item with a date available so I can export it and see how easy populate shows the date format... but it doesn't show up in the excel for me to take a look...

Any suggestions would be great! Thanks so much
