Hi, I'm a newbie and here is my first stupid question: How do I fill in my date of birth in my profile page? 🙈
In Belgium we use 'date-month-year' (XX-XX-19xx )but then I get an error. I tried some other numeric possibilities ... but stil an error.
Thanks for the help.

@fishyknots you can only do the one that KrazyKnotz said. Otherwise, how would it be possible to recognize which date you mean?

@halokiwi when I do month/day/year on the birthdate slot for example 6/25/23 it still calculates the age correctly.

@fishyknots

You're right, but for me the date was somehow automatically corrected to 2023-06-25

I think if you put / instead of -
You can use month/day/year
And that also answers my question, how it is possible to recognize which of the numbers represents which

So there are two options (I only knew one):
year-month-day and month/day/year

But it will always be corrected to year-month-day

If you are using month/day/year, you are able to use a two digit number for the year and it will recognize which year you mean.
