Hello,

I've noticed on the side profile when making a post, the "Member Since" entry is incorrect.

It would be greatly appreciated if someone could explain why this may be the case.

Thank you

what does not correct mean?  how wrong?  days, years, etc?

the data comes directly from wp and is the date the user was registered in WP...  so more info would be useful...

Wow!

any chance you can look into the database table and see what the original data would be for one of the users - maybe yourself? The table is the WP table 'users' and the column is 'user_registered'

Also - can you tell me what setting you have in the forum admin > options > content settings - 'Date Display Format'.

And finally, what is your server timezone set to AND your own timezone setting in your forum profile?

Yellow Swordfish,

I may have been mistaken. Every user shows fine and the date I mentioned above only shows for the moderator. Is it normal for the moderator to show a different date as indicated above?

No that's not normal. As far as WordPress goes all users are originally created equal. So it looks like something may have got disrupted when WordPress created that users record and details. WordPress provides no UI for this data so the only way to put it right would be in the database directly unless there is  a plugin available that might help fix it.
