      Hi
      I wanted to know if it's possible to change the date format that are displayed on the information of the roms (like release date)
      At the moment it seems that the format is fixed on MMDDYYYY. I wish I could change it to DDMMYYYY

      thanks

        You'll have to be more specific - both in your description and your topic title.

            Sure is.

            The date format is controlled by the theme, defaulting to MM/DD/YYYY if not specificed. You can add a format specifier by modifying the theme and adding

            <format>%d/%m/%Y</format>
            

            to the md_releasedate element used by the theme.
