Converting a timestamp to date and time

Este hilo está resuelto. Aquí tiene una descripción del problema y la solución.

Problem:
The issue here is that the customer wants to display his timestamp in a human readable format.

Solution:
You can create a conversion shortcode like this.

// Add Shortcode
function convert_date( $atts ) {
 
    // Attributes
    $atts = shortcode_atts(
        array(
            'timestamp' => '',
        ),
        $atts
    );
 
    $date = Date('F j, Y, g:i a',$atts['timestamp']);
     
    return $date;
 
}
add_shortcode( 'convert_date', 'convert_date' );

Then pass the other shortcode into it link this

[convert_date timestamp="[wpv-post-field name='we_startdate']"]

Tell us what you are trying to do?
I'm using another plugin (WooEvents) which has event datetime stored as a timestamp in the database. If I use Views to display this field using [wpv-post-field name='we_startdate'] it just displays the timestamp, e.g. 1526630400

Note that it's not a types "date format" field so when adding the shortcode I don't get the option to format the date like I do for "Post Date", e.g. [wpv-post-date format="g:i a"]

Do you know how to make it display the date and/or time? Maybe some js?

Thanks

Hi Tim,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

You can create a conversion shortcode like this.

// Add Shortcode
function convert_date( $atts ) {

	// Attributes
	$atts = shortcode_atts(
		array(
			'timestamp' => '',
		),
		$atts
	);

	$date = Date('F j, Y, g:i a',$atts['timestamp']);
	
	return $date;

}
add_shortcode( 'convert_date', 'convert_date' );

Then pass the other shortcode into it link this

[convert_date timestamp="[wpv-post-field name='we_startdate']"]

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane

It kind of works, but the date has the wrong language :O

Edit: Use date_i18n instead of date to make it mulitlanguage
