Specials Expiry Date

Hi

Everytime I enter an expiry date for a specials product the date defaults to 30/11/2036. Instead of 30/06/06.

Any ideas.

Cheers

Callum

What time of day does the date infer? Is there a way to specify a time to start/end a sale instead of just a date?

Re: Specials Expiry Date

I have the same issue:- ( Zencart 1.2.7 )

I am using dd/mm/yyyy format and have altered the date using the details in the wiki
http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.php/Date_Format

But I just cannot get the date to sent right even if I use the mm/dd/yyyy format it still will not except the true date? it gives me 30/11/2036.

Re: Specials Expiry Date

I am using an uptodate version and am having the same 2036 problems. I know it works when you manually type in the ending date as mm/dd/yyyy but id you use the popup calender it does not.
Also the date is displayed as dd/mm/yyyy in the specials area.

I am getting confused with it all am I able to "reset" it so I can put the date in from the calander or type it in as dd/mmm/yyyy

Thanks in advance

Re: Specials Expiry Date

When setting specials ... use the format:
mm/dd/yyyy
