Possible glitch with the date field

The CMS Questions

I’m using the Date field in the Blueprint / Panel. I select the date from the calendar, in the Panel, but as soon as I put the curser in the next field the date I’ve just entered changes.

Currently it seems impossible to use the Date field.

Here’s my Blueprint code

title: Site

sections:
	sectionthingy1:
		type: fields
		fields:
			line_1:
				type: line
			heading_1:
				type: headline
				label: Current term
			current_term_name:
				type: text
				label: Name of term and year
			current_term_1_begins:
				label: Current term 1 begins
				type: date
				display: D-MMM-YYYY
				width: 1/2
			current_term_1_ends:
				label: Current term 1 ends
				type: date
				display: D-MMM-YYYY
				width: 1/2

Try and remove the display property.

That works, the dates stay the same.

But in the Panel the dates now look the wrong way round (on the website they display fine):

I’ve also tried

display: DD-MMM-YYYY

but again the dates change after setting them.

Any ideas on how to get the dates in the Panel to show day, then month, then year?

I think it’s a bug and therefore it won’t work.

Okay, thanks for letting me know. I might just use a text field instead.
