It seems that the DateLozenge component is ignoring user localization when formatting the date. Is there a way to affect/correct this?

Top date is rendered via a Forge Macro into Confluence. Bottom date is rendered by the native Confluence date entry macro.

Any response to this? DateLozenge creates very confusing renderings for US-based users.

Sorry for the late response on this @AdamKarl,

We’ll need to update this on our side. I’ve created a ticket for this which you can follow [[FRGE-644] - Ecosystem Jira](https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/FRGE-644)

I ran into this in Jira/Forge/UIKit today. The bug has component “Confluence”, but not “Jira”.

This is still an issue.  
Please update the documentation, to show how the DateLozenge actually gets rendered, it is misleading!
