date in list

How to display a database timestamp in a formatted date within a CF table list.

Overview

The issue occurs when using an incorrect variable reference for the timestamp field in the column view settings.
Ensure the correct view name is used in the variable path within the date function in the Columns view. The format should reference the specific row and field from the view, not the function name.

Hi Chris,

You have a time stamp ? how do you get its value ?

Please try this:

{date:Y-m-d H:i:s$(var:read_data_name.model.timestamp_field)}


This works with the latest update only because you can pass parameters to the functions calls.

Hi Max,

I'm in the context of a list view (table),

in columns list :

o_order.order_created:Created

shows the timestamp from database

Thanks

Hi Chris,

So you need this:

o_order.order_created:{date:Y-m-d H:i:s$(var:read_data_name.row.o_order.order_created)}

in the "Columns views"

Hello Max,

In column list i put o_order.order_created:Created, if not the created date doesn't appear and now, in each row shows the date now not the created date!

in columns views
o_order.order_created:{date:Y-m-d H:i:s$(var:read_hikaorder.row.o_order.order_created)}

sorry i don't understand

Regards
Chris

Hi Chris,

What happens when you use {var:read_hikaorder.row.o_order.order_created} ? does it display the order date in each row ? in which format is the date ?

Hi Chris,

Please use () inside {}, you can not use nested {{}}, like this:
order_created:{date:Y-m-d H:i:s$(var:read_hikaorder.row.o_order.order_created)}

Maybe you should try:

o_order.order_created:{date:Y-m-d H:i:s$(var:read_hikaorder.row.o_order.order_created)}
