    I am having an issue with the date field allowing all sorts of formats. I want to be able to go in and code in some regex to force a format before it is entered into the database. I'm curious if anyone knows what file this is in or of another way of doing it. I don't believe it can be done through the admin panel I'm pretty sure it has to be coded in. Thanks

    aMember uses date format from choosen locale (aMember CP -> Configuration -> Setup/Configuration -> Languages)

    All dates in database is saved in SQL format (YYYY-MM-DD).

    You can hardcode format in file
    amember/library/Am/Locale.php
    method getDateFormat
