-------------------------------------------+------------------------
We are attempting to migrate from Django 4.11 to Django 5.0.latest. Our
tests identified that Date inputs which were previous rendered with a
"value" attribute in ISO8601 date format now seem to be rendered using en-
GB. Here is what the 4.x renders:
{{{
<input type="date" name="..." value="2012-10-01" class=" form-control"
required="" id="...">
}}}
versus what 5.x renders:
{{{
<input type="date" name="..." value="01/10/2012" class=" form-control"
required="" aria-describedby="..." id="...">
}}}
Our settings have not changed. Here is a subset of what we have:
{{{
LANGUAGE_CODE = 'en-gb'
LANGUAGES = (
('en-gb', _('English (GB)')),
)
TIME_ZONE = 'UTC'
USE_I18N = True
USE_L10N = False
USE_TZ = True
}}}
Note that we do NOT have any of the DATE_FORMAT, DATE_INPUT_FORMATS etc.
set, so they should have their default values. I have reviewed the release
notes but did not see anything relevant. I have tried debugging the code
in django.utils.formats but is not clear to me where the difference
originates.
In case it is relevant, we are using the Jinja backend with bootstrap
styling and our own templates, but the core "field" rendering should be
whatever Django does.
