I am trying to: Change the value of a custom field (type date).

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

I expected to see: The date listed after Custer, WI - should be July 22. When I edit the item, the custom date field does show July 22.

Instead, I got: The date listed, July 24, is what the field was initially set to. It was updated to July 23 but is not showing up when the item is viewed.

Custer, WI - July 23.png

I see July the 23rd, please consult my Screenshot.

I assume this is a cache issue, related to the object cache drop-in plugin.

Please try to view the page in a cache free and fresh browser or even new ISP connection depends on how aggressively you cache.

I also suggest, if the issue persists, to check if the issue also persists with a WordPress Default Theme and NO Plugins BUT the Toolset Plugins?

If not, could you then re-enable the Plugins one after the other, and check the issue each time you enable a plugin?
Please report me when the issue comes back
It might also be due to the Theme.
Please do reactivate your Theme only after you are sure the issue isn't coming from a 3rd Party Plugin.

Editing Date fields should work fine currently in the stable version of Toolset.

It strongly points to a cache issue since I can see what you expected to see:

I am still confused though on this:

Do you expect to see the 22nd, 23rd or 24th?
