Control date format

[dotdash]

Hello there,

I am displaying the start date with: _EventStartDate

Can I control this format? YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS

I would like to only display the day and numeric date.

Cheers,

Spencer

Hi Spencer,

I can help point you in the right direction on this.

You are going to have to use php to change the date format.

The answer to this post lays out how to change the formats:

This page lists all the different formats for php

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks

Unfortunately, no it is not possible to move that file and edit it in the theme.

Only the files located in the view directory can be moved and edited.

I am going to close this topic as we typically close threads if there is no activity after two weeks. Feel free to create a new thread and reference this one to save you time.
