Hello @toad78
The Registration Date field uses a date format from the WordPress settings: Settings -> General -> Date Format. Does your field not match these settings?
Thank you.

No, it does not. The format in the UM Registration Date field is:
2018-05-29 15:26:58
It should be Month Day, Year
@toad78
The Registration date format is defined by WP and created by WP at User Registration.
UM is only displaying the WP date as a text field without any additional formatting.

Date the user registered in UTC. Format is ‘Y-m-d H:i:s’.

Thank you for getting back to me, @missveronicatv.
In the Settings > General > it is set to the correct timezone. It’s the way the date information is displayed in the Profile (which is coming from the UM Profile form) that is wrong:

So I’m still confused how the information posting is not in the correct timezone when the user was registered on the server that has the correct timezone set in WordPress. Could this be a conflict with the way the Server timezone is set or how the format is posting?

The formatting is following the date option set by WP.
$value = sprintf( __( 'Joined %s', 'ultimate-member' ), date_i18n( get_option( 'date_format' ), $value ) );
Have you removed the text “Joined”?
Timezone is adjusted by the function date_i18n.

Hello, @missveronicatv.
No, I have not modified the text “Joined” at all. That displays fine. It’s the Registration Date Field that isn’t displaying correctly.

I don’t think that UM is supporting User editing of the WP Registration Date and you have found a glitch here.
UM will in this case save the edited Registration Date in a duplicate text field in the usermeta table and not in the WP users table. A date validation is not used and any text can be entered with current date displayed instead if not a valid date format is entered by the User.

hmm…
I think what I’ll do is just skip the usage of posting the Registration Date field, since it isn’t posting the correct format. I’ll have to think of something else.
Hello @toad78
Did you solve this problem? Can I close this topic?
Thank you.

Nope. The Registration Date field still posts the incorrect format of the date, so I had to remove it. You can close this topic, but there was no official solution.
@toad78
I have posted an UM Bug report regarding this issue to get the UM policy regarding Registration Date updates resolved.
