Date format is the wrong way round

[lisadavies]

Hi Guys
I just wanted to change one more thing. Dates on the event page are showing up as month and day but I would like to change it so that it shows the day before the month. Is that possible? I looked through the css, functions and index files to try and change it but can’t seem to find anything. Can you please help?

Thanks
Lisa

Hi Lisa,

You can change the date format in your WordPress settings under Settings > General, but that may not modify every date that is used by The Events Calendar. At the present time, I don’t have a better answer for you unless you want to dig into the code and customize it on your own.

Hi Julie, thanks for the reply but which page and which code do I customise? I have gone into the index.php file where the code is ‘j m’ etc but that hasn’t made any difference.

Hi Lisa,

Have you seen our Themer’s Guide? (https://theeventscalendar.com/support/documentation/events-calendar-themers-guide/) It’s got information that I think you might find helpful. The date is actually used in several locations, but the date.php file might be one place to start, depending on where you are looking to have the date changed.
