You can use WPAS tag functions for displaying date and time information in your view layouts. Some of these tag functions may accept additional parameter called a format string to determine how the date is going to be displayed.
Date Format: !#date-format[Attribute Date Tag,'Format']#
Formats the date attribute according to the format string.
For example, the format string:
!#date-format['l, F j, Y',!#person_birthdate#]#
creates a date that look like this:
Friday, September 24, 2004
Here is what each format character in the string above represents:
-
l= Full name for day of the week (lower-case L). -
F= Full name for the month. -
j= The day of the month. -
Y= The year in 4 digits. (lower-case y gives the year's last 2 digits)
The following table shows the format characters you can use:
| Day of Month | ||
|---|---|---|
| d | Numeric, with leading zeros | 01–31 |
| j | Numeric, without leading zeros | 1–31 |
| S | The English suffix for the day of the month | st, nd or th in the 1st, 2nd or 15th. |
