Hi there…
When you are creating a Date field, you can choose the “display” format, and the “return” format independently… there is a Custom option where you can put the mask you specified above.
For taxonomy… you can choose a return type of Object, rather than ID.
Then, to output the taxonomy name, you would do:
(assuming a ‘single’ choice field like a radio or select button)
<?php
$term = get_field('qicname');
if( $term ) {
echo $term->name;
}
?>
For a multi-choice taxonomy, you would create a loop as shown here:
