Under Admin > General I am trying to change Date display format and Comments date format to %d %b, %Y but it won't let me. I change the format, click update settings, it tells me it's saved it but it hasn't changed. I have done this before with no problem so am now at a loss.
I have attached a debug file rather than paste it into this post in case you don't need it.
I can reproduce the problem when I use the multilingual language with the english-only template set, but not with english-only language. Perhaps you're using the multilingual english language with the default template set, which will cause little issues like that -- you need to either switch to the regular english, switch to the multilingual template set, or edit the date formats in the language ignoring the options elsewhere.
I have never set it up for multi-language, always just English and used the English templates.
However, I am revamping the site, and in doing so when I upgraded I rewrote ALL the files, including the templates. Unfortunately I think I may also have inadvertantly also uploaded the integration folder too. I have the links integrated with WSN Forum, looking to that for membership. If I did overwrite the files in that folder would that cause the problem? I still have the original folder, should I reinstall those?
Integration has no relation to this. Check your language, search for a language item named 'dateformat' or with content '%x'. If you have one, you're using the multilingual language pack.

Thank you Paul! Have no idea how that was set up <G> but of course you were right. I deleted those and it immediately went to my format.
