    Have you ever accessed your signatures via the old Hellosign website, which might give you the option to change the date there?

Hi Jay,

I never knew that was an option! So thanks for the heads up 😊

 

Having logged in there, if I go to the Settings page for Date & time it says "Change date and time on Dropbox". It has a button to click to go to those settings within Dropbox. When I click, it just goes back to where I have already set the date as "DD/MM/YYYY" format in Dropbox.

 

So I uploaded a dummy document, and yes within that portal it does have the correct "DD/MM/YYYY" date tag, so thanks very much for your help. I just need to make sure I do any signing work in the Hellosign portal, not directly via the signatures tab in dropbox.
