**Important Notice**

**End of Support for Internet Explorer 11**

Kintone.com will no longer support Internet Explorer 11 as of the end of October. If you are currently using Internet Explorer 11, we recommend switching to Microsoft Edge or another [supported browser](https://get.kintone.help/general/en/user/list_start/webbrowser.html). 

     

 

**Feature Improvements**

**Expanded Date Range Available in the Date\_Format Function **

The date range available in the **Date\_Format** function has been expanded. A date **before January 1, 1970** can be used in the Date\_Format function. This ensures that if you enter a date before January 1, 1970, the calculation result appears without errors.

 

Example of entering December 31, 1969 to change the date format from MM/DD/YYYY to YYYY-MM-DD:

 

**![Product Update](https://blog.kintone.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Customer%20Success/Product%20Updates/July%202021/date.png?width=336&name=date.png)**

 

 

 

**Showing the Version Number for Plug-ins**

You can see the version number of plug-ins on the Kintone Administration page. The version number helps you to identify the errors caused by plug-ins.

 

![Product Update](https://blog.kintone.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Customer%20Success/Product%20Updates/July%202021/plugin.png?width=1320&name=plugin.png)

 

 

 

**Minor Version Number Can be Used for Plug-ins**

You can now specify the number after the decimal point as the version number of plug-ins. Depending on what kind of update you have made, you can choose how to increase the version number.
