I am trying to display a custom field and it is a date. I am doing this in a view using just a text block. The date is coming through but It is formated like this: 2024-07-07. I want to format it like this: July 7, 2007. How can I do this?

Hi there

When you say you are using a text block, you mean a Paragraph block, using Toolset's inline dynamic sources?

When I just checked doing that myself, it first output the date in a generic format that I didn't want, but when I started to highlight the text it gave me the formatting options, from which I could choose "F j, Y", which is the format you are looking for.

Can you check if you can do the same?

Yes that option comes up when using the POST date but I am using a custom field that is a date and yes I am using the paragraph block. Is there another block I can use to display the date the format I want?

Hello there,

I checked it and for custom fields of the type date the format option shows up as well, please check the screenshot.

If you can't see it I'd need to investigate to check what's causing it.

Can you please share temporary admin login details along with a link to a page where this field can be seen?
