Double Dating - UK and USA

We have built our website to allow users the choice of date format: mm/dd/yyyy or dd/mm/yyyy

Once a user has made a choice the preferred date input is shown when a user has to add a date. This has been created in the UI by overlaying two date input fields, one with Date and one with Date_2.

We are having a few issues with this, with double dates showing on content pages where only one date should be, but there is no consistent behaviour.

Is there any reason why this wouldn’t work? Is there anything in the back end date field that should get things confused? @emmanuel @georgeciobanu

Hahaha, after reading the title of your post - I thought you were providing us with a link to your “Double Dating” (aka “swingers”) website.
