Best regards.

I only wanted to change display in cmseditor, not in the viewers. Are you talking about this?

Only two items in combo:

dd/mm/yyyy
mm/dd/yyyy (this order is now in cmsbuilder)

/cmsAdmin/lib/menus/default/edit_functions.php

swap lines:

print " <select name='{$fieldSchema['name']}:mon'>$monthOptions</select>\n";
print " <select name='{$fieldSchema['name']}:day'>$dayOptions</select>\n";

Actually a field in the Regional Settings where you can cange the date format would be great. In Germany i.e. dates are in this format: d-m-Y

Here is my fix... im not php professional writer.

In editField.php, under showtime DIV (line 196 or so) add this:

<div class="label">Date Format</div>
<div>
<input type="hidden" name="euroStyle" value="0"/>
<input type="checkbox" id="date_eurostyle" name="euroStyle" value="1" <?php checkedIf($field['euroStyle'], '1') ?> />
<label for="date_eurostyle">European style date format (day, month, year)</label>
</div>

This will let you check european style date in cms.

In editField_functions.php
under line 20: $defaultValue['showTime'] = '1';
$defaultValue['euroStyle'] = '1'; // add this one

in line 278, fix date with:
'date' => array('customColumnType', 'order', 'label', 'type', 'isSystemField', 'adminOnly', 'isUnique', 'showTime', 'euroStyle', 'showSeconds', 'use24HourFormat', 'yearRangeStart', 'yearRangeEnd'),

and last.. in edit_functions.php around line 307 make this changes:

if ($fieldSchema['euroStyle']) {
print " <select name='{$fieldSchema['name']}:day'>$dayOptions</select>\n";
print " <select name='{$fieldSchema['name']}:mon'>$monthOptions</select>\n";
}
else {
print " <select name='{$fieldSchema['name']}:mon'>$monthOptions</select>\n";
print " <select name='{$fieldSchema['name']}:day'>$dayOptions</select>\n";
}

I hope this helps. Please, check my code, i fixed without check in deep.

Nice job. :) I'll review this code and put something in the next release (v1.29).

Thanks!
