Entry_date Format variables in channel Forms
Development and Programming
This should work for changing an existing entry with an existing entry_date if I want to display the entry date in a specific format…no?
<td>{entry_date format='%m-%d-%Y'}</td>
But the renders in the browser as…
Start Date {entry_date format='%m-%d-%Y'}
without the formating Variable it renders “correctly” but with the Time which I don’t want.
Thanks…..
I can’t be sure but I have been working the site and feel like this just started happening. but it is possible I missed it from the start.
Many thanks.
UPDATE:
When I add both the entry_date with and without formating (twice):
<label for=”entry_date”>Spa Visit Date</label> {entry_date format='%m-%d-%Y'} | {entry_date}
They BOTH parse/render(?) as they should:
Spa Visit Date 05-21-2020 | 5/21/2020 12:00 AM
as soon as I remove the {entry_date} then the formated entry_date does not parse/render. (WTH)
Spa Visit Date {entry_date format='%m-%d-%Y'} |
