This is happening for me as well. All of DNN's dates are showing in US date format, rather than UK which is the Language set on the portal.
It has happened on both an upgraded site and a clean install of 9.13.3
@mavjt did this work correctly in a prior version? If so, do you know what the last version was that you saw it working properly?
Looking for UK dates in the User.. Joined column: v9.6.2 shows correctly Upgraded to v9.9.1 and it was showing incorrectly ie US format. I then took a clean v962 which showed UK dates, upgraded it to v972 and it still showed correctly. Then v980 and it showed INCORRECTLY. It is not just a problem for admin pages either, I use an Events plugin that uses DNN date format to display dates so is showing dates in the US format when our users are expecting UK.
These seem to be the only mention of culture/localization in the 980 release: https://github.com/dnnsoftware/Dnn.Platform/pull/4265 https://github.com/dnnsoftware/Dnn.Platform/pull/4164
Noted same issue. Was signed in as SuperUser account with "Preferred Locale" set to "English (United Kingdom)".
Is there an update on this as it would be good to get this fixed as it can be confusing for admin users?
