Time format + comments

Question

Hey guys, in my layout I got the following code:

$action.getText("macros.blogpost.by.posted.on", ["#userLink($blog.creator)", $action.dateFormatter.formatDateTime($blog.creationDate)]) - last edited by #userLink($blog.lastModifier) on $action.dateFormatter.formatDateTime($blog.lastModificationDate)

and the output is like Tim posted on Jun 02, 2014 08:55 - last edited by Tim on Jun 11, 2014 14:05 I want the time-format to be like Tim posted on 02.06.2014 08:55 -last edited by Tim on 11.06.2014 14:05 Is there a specific formatter for this type of display-date? My second issue is that I want the same format for all my pages, blogposts and comments. It works fine for pages and blogposts but I can't find the right line for time-format in my comment-layout. Can anyone help? :) Cheers!

Hey Tim,

If this is not for a plugin you are developing, take a look at

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Configuring+Time+and+Date+Formats

If it is for a plugin, use DateTimeFormatter.format
