I would like to show a toolset date field shortened to 3 characters:

November = Nov
September = Sep
...

Friday= Fri
Saturday = Sat
...

So basically limited to 3 characters for month and day of the week.

Can you help me?
Thanks!

Hi there

If you are outputting the date field using a Single Field block, you'll find the relevant settings in the sidebar at the bottom, under Field Settings.

You can enter custom formats. See here for examples of the codes: hidden link

'D' is 3-letter days. 'M' is 3-letter months.
