Wrong date format (always MM/DD/YYYY)

Browser Support Desktop Support
1

Description of the issue:
Despite of the Windows system locale settings and the Brave language, dates on websites are always displayed in the MM/DD/YYYY format.

How can this issue be reproduced?
For example navigate to https://www.idea-r.it/it/blog.aspx

Expected result:
If your are an italian you should see the publish date of the blog articles in DD/MM/YYYY format (use Chrome for example), but they are displayed always as MM/DD/YYYY.

Brave Version( check About Brave):
1.14.84 Chromium: 85.0.4183.121 64 bit

Hey @IgorDR
It worked fine for me.
Look: DD/MM/YYYY

That’s a mistery.
In my case, it works on Chrome:

chrome
chrome1182Ă—1012 371 KB

…but not on Brave:

brave
brave1083Ă—1070 419 KB

Is this an attempt to increase the number of hits for your blog articles? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:
Because the date display works fine.

Hello @IgorDR

go to the language setting in brave
brave://settings/languages

then pick the language you like if you choose english then use uk not usa then click on the 3 vertical dot next to that language then move to top

then go check your site and refresh it

hope that help and have a nice day

@justsomeone1 @IgorDR
i did so (yes i’ve relaunched) and had the same result than before. MM.DD.YYYY
so it is not a conflict in the code of the browser.
It shows me also Dot (.) not Dash (/)

what is the first language from the link i mention?

Thanks @justsomeone1, I solved the problem.
I had two languages in my list: first “English” and second “Italian used for UI”
Moving down English, solved my issue, thanks!

@mobydick_2015 I do not need to increase my blog visits, using non-targeted visitors.
I’m just debugging my blog and, thanks to more useful advices than yours, I solved the problem.

Sorry. I’m glad you managed to fix the problem. There are so many spammers promoting their content these days that anyone can get it wrong.
