 * When I enter the end date using the frontend post an event page it saves as the
   wrong date.
   I am picking the date from the date picker box as 10-20-24 and it
   appears correctly in the field.But when I submit/save the event it changes it
   to 01-01-1970

 * Hello,
 * [@jimk1416](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jimk1416/) Please look into the
   third party plugins and try to change the theme and also make sure you have updated
   the plugin to the latest version.

 * Hi Thanks
   It works fine in the backend but NOT the front end.I tried changed 
   back to WordPress twenty twenty four theme and deactivated all plugins except
   yours and the issue persists.I tried different formats for the date in the WordPress
   general settings but none of them resolved the issue either.

 * OK so I tested the plugin on a new staging site with default WordPress theme 
   and no other plugins and that date field worked correctly. So any ideas how I
   can fix it on my live site would be appreciated.
 * I’ll try adding plugins to the staging site that are on my live site and see 
   it I can narrow it down but I would think with them all deactivated it would 
   not have had the issue.

 * Hello,
 * [@jimk1416](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jimk1416/) We’d like to inform
   you that the third party plugins are causing this. Please disable the third party
   plugins and delete our plugin and install it again .

 * Thanks
   Turns out all the plugins I was using were OK. Removing them all did not
   resolve the issue as I said before.BUT, when I deleted the WP Events plugin and
   reinstalled it the issue WAS resolved. So kind of weird.

 * So it looks like I was wrong. It turns out, at least on my site, that if I change
   the date format in the Date & Time Format settings for the Datepicker Date Format
   from anything other than 2024-01-15 then it gives me the wrong date when I submit
   an event using the frontend post an event page.
