change date format

Hi,

Do you want display this date format in the calculated field?

I’ll describe a situation, that you should adjust it to your particular equation.

If your current equation is something similar to: CDATE(…)

You should modify the equation like follow:

(function(){
var d = new Date( CDATE(…));
return d.toDateSting();
})()

Now, you should open the “module_public.js” file, located in “/wp-content/plugins/calculated-fields-form/js/modules/01_mathematical_logical/public/module_public.js”, in the text editor your choice, and modify the snippet of code:

‘validator’ : function( v )
{
return isFinite( v ) || /\d{2}[\/\-\.]\d{2}[\/\-\.]\d{4}/.test( v );
}

like follow:

‘validator’ : function( v )
{
return typeof v != ‘undefined’;
}

Best regards.

Hi,

Could you send me a link to your page to check the issue in detail, please?

Best regards.

Hi,

I’m sorry, my mistake. I’ve typed wrong the method name. Please, use the following equation, pay attention to the date format, passed as the second parameter of the CDATE operation:

(function(){
var d = new Date( CDATE(fieldname1+280+fieldname7,’mm/dd/yyyy’));
return d.toDateString();
})()

Best regards.

Hi,

In this case you should formatting the text by yourself:

(function(){
var month_names = [‘January’, ‘February’, ‘March’, ‘April’, ‘May’, ‘June’, ‘July’, ‘August’, ‘September’, ‘October’, ‘November’, ‘December’];
var d = new Date( CDATE(fieldname1+280+fieldname7,’mm/dd/yyyy’));
return d.getDate()+’. ‘+month_names[d.getMonth()]+’ ‘+d.getFullYear();
})()

Best regards.

Hi,

A good rating is always appreciated 😉

Hi,

You are using the free version of plugin (in the developer version there are specific operations for dates). So, in this case you can insert another date field, without define a default date (the default values in date fields is the today date), and use the new field in the equation.

If the field for today is important only for the equations, and it does not have any other functionality in the form, you can hide the field from the public webpage simply assigning a classname through the “Add Css Layout Keywords” attribute of the field, for example, myclass, and define the new class in any css file of your website:

.myclass{display:none;}

Best regards.
