Due to limitations, SMW uses the date config ISO8601 (YEAR/MONTH/DAY) to save date data. Some countries, like Spain it's not usually to use this kind of format. For example we use the format DAY/MONTH/YEAR. One way to show to the users their usually date format it's using a time parser function, you can create a template that contain this function, then every time you need to use a date, you can use this to show as their users like and the same time you save this data on the format used by SMW.

I am somewhat confused by the wiki page that I see at this link. Some points that I see on this page (relating to missing month label) have been fixed recently. Also, the dates are not normally displayed in ISO format by SMW. If you want to get them in ISO format (for example if you want to parse them in a template), then you can add the output format "ISO" to the printout: ?mydateproperty # ISO Please reopen this bug if there is still another problem that has not been fixed yet.
