Damon, See this https://tiddlywiki.com/#DateFormat [UTC] Time-shift the represented date to UTC. Must be at very start of format string So Try <$view field="customdate" format="date" template="[UTC]MMM DD, YYYY"/>
Also you may want to consider using - https://github.com/kixam/TW5-datepicker - https://github.com/kixam/TW5-visjsTimeline - http://bjtools.tiddlyspot.com#ExtendableCalendar <http://bjtools.tiddlyspot.com/#ExtendableCalendar> Regards Tony On Friday, February 1, 2019 at 11:10:07 AM UTC+11, Damon Pritchett wrote: > > Hi all, > > I've created a custom field in my TW that I use to store a date.
