Date Picker Custom Field

Is possible to change the set of Custom field data picker in date.js?
I would like to change Date.format = ‘dd/mm/yyyy’; in Date.format = ‘yyyy/mm/dd’;

Re: Date Picker Custom Field

You can use posted and modified to output the date of an article in any strftime format you like, so yyyy/mm/dd could be achieved like this:

<txp:posted format="%Y/%m/%d" />

and

<txp:modified format=""%Y/%m/%d" />

You can use this in articles or forms. I haven’t tested the code, so I am not 100% sure if the / characters need to be escaped.

Most likely, you’re satisfied with Pete’s answers, Matteo. Small rest chance: “date.js” sounds like you’re using a plugin for entering/formatting the date, it’s not comprised “out of the box”. I don’t remember which one uses date.js but there’s certainly a spot in the plugin help or the accompanying documentation that mentions the date formatting possibilities.

Re: Date Picker Custom Field

The glz_custom_fields plugin uses date.js. You can change the format here, lines 78-89:

/**
 * The format that string dates should be represented as (e.g. 'dd/mm/yyyy' for UK, 'mm/dd/yyyy' for US, 'yyyy-mm-dd' for Unicode etc).
 *
 * @name format
 * @type String
 * @cat Plugins/Methods/Date
 * @author Kelvin Luck
 */
Date.format = 'dd/mm/yyyy';
//Date.format = 'mm/dd/yyyy';
//Date.format = 'yyyy-mm-dd';
//Date.format = 'dd mmm yy';

Re: Date Picker Custom Field

msd_admin_datepicker let’s you configure the date format to be populated into the custom field.
