Convert the date format (Variable Available in WHMCS) in the Email template

[Rabab]

Hi,

At the level of the configuration of the Email template, WHMCS proposes Variables Available when designing your email templates.

Among these variables, there is {$ invoice_date_created} which returns as the date of creation of an invoice but the format of the date is in English "Wednesday, July 4th, 2018"

If I want to change this format and I convert it date as 04/07/2018, how can I do it? Is there a tag or formula that allows me to change the date with this format DD / MM / YY ?

Thank you in advance.

the variable is using the Client Date Format specified in setup -> general settings -> localisation...

so if you set the global date format to whatever is appropriate and then set CDF to use it, then WHMCS will use that format for that variable.

the other way, if you just want to adjust this variable in the email template, would be to use...

{$invoice_date_created|date_format:"%d/%m/%Y"}
