Hi all ,

When i set the DNN culture to arabic - saudi arabia , the DNN DateEdit control doesn't work proeprly , it seems that the DNN is not working well with Hijri calendar

Because the "Website\admin\Modules\modulesettings.ascx" control will not insert the Datas correctly to the database !

for example , when you go to module settings ,and under advanced settings , and when you try to set the module start date and End date , an invalid date will be parsed and inserted to the database , something like 1987 ....

I looked at the source code and the way they are parsing the date from  Textboxes , They sed Convert.ConvertToDateTime(.....

And it seems that funcion will fail in hijri calendar ,

I tried this code in my custom modules and it wokred well for both en-US and arabic saudi arabia ( ar-SA)

       public static DateTime ParsedateString(string DateStr)
       {
       return DateTime.ParseExact(DateStr, DateTimeformatInfo.CurrentInfo.ShortDatePattern,  new  CultureInfo("en-US"));
       }

I'm using it by passing the DateTimeEdit Control value to that function , and it correctly returns the correct date object .

I also tried to pass a custom format for the DateTimeEdit Control (Via its Custom Attributes property) and i didn't get any positive result ,I'm not sure if its a bug or there is something I'm missing !

Thanks for any help .

You can try overridding it with your own datetime conversion function.
