Not sure if this has been reported, but the date on Certificates of Completion seems to be defaulting to 1 January 1970, not to the current date as it should.

Are other people also seeing this? Tried logging out and logging back in – no effect.

I assume you are referring to

I assume you are referring to the date under "Bruce Allen" on the bottom left. Yes I am seeing that on my Certificate of Computation as well, even though it says I have been a member since 2016.

The certificate is a HTML

The certificate is a HTML document (try: view the certificate and press: Ctrl+U ('show html source')). You can save it somewhere as an ".html" file, then edit the date in a text editor. Open it again in your webbrowser (File --> open...) to print it. That's not a good solution for this annoying problem. But I assume the einstein@home team doesn't has the time to fix this issue at the moment.
