Will Rock support international date/address/phone formats at 1.0?

We have campuses in several countries (not including the US) and would love to use Rock, but the US data formats are causing us some problems. I see there's a plan to support international addresses. Is there any news on that? Also, will it be possible to select the date format, as we generally use DD/MM/YYYY. Thanks!

    Have you looked at the updated documentation here? http://www.rockrms.com/Rock/BookContent/9/9#internationalizationlocalization

    I think about version .4 they added international phone number support, and around 0.10 they added support for International addresses. Your date format should be handled correctly, assuming the date format on the Windows box on which Rock is running is correct. Not being international myself, I can't speak to how well these new features work, but definitely let the devs know if something purported to be working per the updated documentation, isn't.

    Ah man, can't believe I missed that! Thanks so much. That's exactly what we need.

    Make sure the country and language setting of your web browser is set correctly for your country.

    Version 1.2 has fixed the display of dates for those of us that use international date formats.

    Thanks Ken, that's sorted the date format for me. Chrome was using 'English', but changing that to 'English (United Kingdom)' did the trick.
