I have a class, which has an attribute of type date. And now I'm trying to import objects of that class to my site. With PHP. Everything is ok, but date is always 01/01/1970.

To specify date I do the following.

$attributesData['publication_date'] = '01/11/2010';

Maybe that's not the right way to specify date? Which is the right way then?

Hello Ilya,

Try converting your date to a timestamp before storing. Dates are stored as timestamps.
