I would want to print the date in this format: 25.07.2003 but I do not succeed to us. I have read other messages and I have tried in this way:

{attribute_view_gui attribute=$Child:item.data_map.data|datetime(custom,"%d %m %Y";)}

but it does not work and it prints always 2003.07.25 Someone can help me?
Thanks

If you are familiar with PHP you can try to edit the ezdate datatype directly to make your change - or perhaps create a new datatype from a copy of ezdate (recommended). The datatype is in kernel/classes/datatypes/ezdate/

to modify the class is too much complicated for me, exists an other way?

Thanks

edit your language file under share/locale/

eg. you use united kingdom english, then you should edit share/locale/eng-GB.ini

in that file, find section DateTime, and you'll understand

The output of the date datatype is controlled by the template content/datatype/view/ezdate.tpl (in design/standard/templates). Copy it to your own design and change the contents.
Example code:

{section show=$attribute.content.is_valid}{$attribute.content.timestamp|datetime(custom,"%d %m %Y")}{/section}

Also to clear up some misunderstandings in your code.
The expression $Child:item.data_map.data will return an object of the type eZContentObjectAttribute and cannot be converted directly to a date string. The datetime (or l10n(date) ) operator will only work on timestamps which are simple integers (number).
And also the ; (semicolon) after your string will probably make the template parser complain.

Hi.

I've got, somewhat, the same problem. I am listing out some articles, and I wish to show when they where published. I have a datefield in my class which is called "publisert". I use this:
{$Child:item.data_map.publisert}, but this gives me a date in 1970!?!

Thanks in advance

{$Child:item.data_map.publisert.data_int|l10n(date)}

Thanks to Richard Wood.
