 * Hi Rolland,
 * Suppose I type manually “2020-03-01” in a PDB date field.
 * After saving the record, I get “2020-02-29” (February 29th, 2020) instead of “
   2020-03-01” (March 1st, 2020).
 * My WordPress and PDB date format are both set to “Y-m-d”.
 * Typing “2020-03-02” to get a final “2020-03-01” can bypass the problem.
 * Have I missing something?
 * Regards,

 * This is a problem that can come up because of the difference between the server
   timezone and the site timezone, and indicates a possible php configuration issue.
 * Take a look at this article that explains this issue:
