Registration Date Format Won't Change

[TigerXtrm]

I've been trying to change the registration date format on my forum but for some reason it simply won't change it.

I want to have it display the month and the year only, ala "Jun 2009" but even if I leave option field completely empty it will still show "9 July 2009" no matter what I do.

I've tried looking at it with the default skin to rule out it was a template mistake and the problem persists on there as well. How can I fix this?

Anyone know how I can fix this?

You can change the date forum in the admin CP can't you?
AdminCP => vBulletin options => Date and Time options => Format for Date.
Use the URL there to help you understand how to do it.

Yeah, that's the option I've been trying to change. I can change it to any format I want, the actual date in the postbit won't change. I can even leave the option field empty and it will still display it.

I've already been looking for a way to maybe change it manually in one of the php files but so far I havn't found the one that handles the $post[joindate] thingy.

It is not the "Format for Date", but "Format For Registration Date". Set it to "M Y"
