Datepicker output format not outputting

Hi,

The “display format” setting is not changing the output of the data on the custom post type I am using it on. Is there any reason why this wouldn’t work off the bat? I’ve tried several different formats saving them in the post type on the backend.

I’m pulling it into the template with <?php the_field('event_date'); ?>

Any ideas?

Thanks,

-Josh

Hi @djjoshdavid

You should be able to change the display format of the date picker off the bat from the field settings edit screen.

Are there any errors that you can report that are appearing on the console?

It is also possible to make use of the PHP date() function to change the format of the date. You can check this out here http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
