Date formats was created by Bodo
Hello,

I was wondering if it's possible to add another date format, and if so how?

For example: it's now possible to enter a date in the following notation dd.mm.jjjj. However I would like that users can also enter their dates in dd/mm/jjj and dd-mm-jjjj.

Kind regards,
Bodo

Hi Bodo,

it is not possible to change the date format. You can only use the 3 different formats predefined by Visforms.
It is also not possible to change the selected format (in administration) after submitted form data are stored in the database.
I'm sorry but such a feature does not go well with Visforms and the "incompatibility" is rooted very deep.

Regards,
Aicha

Hi,

oh, the created at is a field which is recommended by Jooma! for each table in the database, which I have included in the tables and simply use it as it stands. Sorry but it is not possible to change the format of this field at the moment.

Regards,
Aicha
