Description

Currently dates displayed throughout the UI (specifically on the errata page) are formatted m/d/y.

It would be excellent if the date display format was configurable globally with alternative date formats such as 'yyyy-mm-dd', 'dd/mm/yyyy' from the Administer -> Settings menu.

Alternatively, could the date display format be read from the TZ configuration of the host?

Timestamp formats should be following the browser locale by default, unless they have been overridden under your account settings, so we already have a means of configuring this.

Moving to Katello as it's possible this is just an issue with the locale not being respected on the errata page. #9942 also covers an issue seen in Foreman with the locale not being respected there.

Moving to a bug as the UI should be localized everywhere possible, so there may be areas we missed or didn't think of during reviews.

I am seeing dates on the errata page being displayed correctly based on the locale.

En español la fecha se muestra como 27/1/12.
In US English the date is displayed as 1/27/12.

I am closing this bug. If we want a feature to make dates configurable beyond locale settings then please reopen and work with the Foreman team on prioritization.
