Hi Alexandra,

I think what you need is:

${dateformat(“MMM dd, yyyy”):CurrentDate}

The dateformat function allows you to define which do you want to use.

Try it.

Sorry for the late reply.

Cheers,

Rui Rodrigues

Hi,

You can get the date formatted using the function dateformat.

Take a look here for further information.

Here is an example:

${dateformat(“d MMM yyyy”):CurrentDate}

Could you try it?

Thank you.

Cheers,

Hi, Rui!

I've tried some examples from Javascript page page , because I need to output the Months in Polish. But none of them are work well. Maybe there are some mistakes?

for example:

%{var months = new Array ( 'Jan' , 'Feb' , 'Mar' , 'Apr' , 'May' , 'Jun' , 'Jul' , 'Aug' , 'Sep' , 'Oct' , 'Nov' , 'Dec' ); var dateParts = '${dateformat("dd-MMM-yyyy HH:mm:ss"):Created}'.split( '-' ); var month = dateParts[ 1 ]; var day = dateParts[ 0 ] ; var year = dateParts[ 2 ].split( ' ' )[ 0 ]; months[Number(month) - 1 ] + ' ' + day + ', ' + year;}
