Date Format
Is there a function or template that can convert the ISO8601 short date to a long date?
<div>[[News/{{{1}}}| {{{2| {{#date:{{{1}}}|pretty format}} }}}]]</div>
20090108 = January 08, 2009
- Yes, actually, there is! {{#time: l, F j, Y | 20090108}} yields Thursday, January 8, 2009. I updated the template. -- Sekoia 05:44, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
- In case anyone ever wants to tweak the format string, more info can be found here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:ParserFunctions#.23time -- Sekoia 05:45, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
