xprofile date field displays wrong date in public profile

[Ahjira]

It appears that the 1.2.6 release included a bug with the date field for extended profile information. If you create a date field and then pick a date, say, January 15, it will display as January 14 in the public profile page.

Someone pointed out it has something to do with a date offset function, bp_format_time:

Having the same problem. Any update on this? Thanks a lot!

The succeeding patch fixes the above issue. I've also cleaned up bp_format_time() to allow it to accept a zero value, which is a valid Unix timestamp. I've also changed the function so that it now obeys the time_format, along with the date_format set in Settings>General. Further explanation of the problem can be found at the link given by Ahjira.

Problem confirmed on the trunk. cnorris23, your patch fixes it nicely. Fixed in [3651] (I wrote the commit message wrong so the ticket didn't auto-close)
