Date format in custom view

cdiaz

Hi!

I'm using custom view in templates. I've read this:
https://docs.acymailing.com/developers/customise-inserted-content

For security reasons, it isn't possible to use PHP code in the custom view, you only have access to HTML elements and the data shown on the right. You then won't be able to customise the format for date fields for example.

It's not possible to modify date format, using shortcode, wordpress hooks or similar? I don't like to show time, only date and with different format.

Thanks

Hi,

Unfortunately you didn't specify what date field this is about, so I only can guess.

You can try to change this language string ACYM_DATE_FORMAT_LC2="l, j F Y H:i" into ACYM_DATE_FORMAT_LC2="l, j F Y"

You can edit it in your language file in the Acymailing configuration. It's documented here: https://docs.acymailing.com/setup/configuration/languages#translations

Thanks @jvstratum
I'm using this in custom view:
<div class="acym_date">{post_date}</div>

And date/time is shown as: 2024-03-14 21:05:01

I like to see: 14-03-2024, or with month name.

Hi,

I'm sorry but for custom values like this ones we do not format the date we display it's raw value from the database. Our developers have added this to their todo list, but we currently can't give you an eta on this.
