I am trying to:
Display a custom date field using global WP date format.

Are there additional settings that I am missing? I've created a blocks view that displays WooCommerce content with a toolset custom date field.

Hi Derek,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Could you send me a screenshot of the block on the backend that you are using to display the field?

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Derek,

I see that you are using the Heading cell to do this.

In order for the date to be formatted correctly you must use the Single Field block. The heading block is for text fields and our Types date fields are stored as a timestamps, this is why you are seeing numbers instead of the date itself.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
