Maybe not 100% a Types question but I thought maybe somebody knows. In Yoast Seo it is possible to add Custom fields to Seo Titles. Like this %%cf_<custom-field-name>%%.

I have this working but the field is a Toolset datetime field which stores value as timestamp number. Any way to get the date/time shown as date format in Yoast SEO Title somehow I wonder?

Hi Bob,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Yes our plugin stores the date as a timestamp. You will need to write some custom code to retrieve it in a human readable date.

Maybe you can check with the yoast team if they have a hook that you can use to modify the SEO title and then add some custom code to it to get the human readable date.

Thanks,
Shane
