hi—

im creating a view to display my news posts and want to have a large number underneath the month in which a post was published (see image). i've looked through the wordpress codex here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time but there is no information about how to separate the day from the month. how can i achieve this layout using views?

site in development is here: hidden link

thanks,
emily

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - If you are using Types custom date field - you can use the format attribute to get formatted date output.

To display only month name:

[types field='your-field' style='text' format='F'][/types]

To display only date name:

[types field='your-field' style='text' format='d'][/types]

If you are using the post date field:
To display Month:

[wpv-post-date format="F"]

To display Day:

[wpv-post-date format="d"]
