Hi,
I have a form that there are 2 date fields on that I assume are pulling the date format form the database as the standard Joomla date formats do not affect it. I have posted the entire code for default.php below.
I’ve done a fair bit of searching and have a basic understanding of the various arguments for date format, but as I know nothing about php I’m having problems as to where to put this code. The 2 fields are “order” and “due”. I click on the calendar for the date I want and the format it comes out as is YYYY-MM-DD. I want it as DD-MM-YYYY. Could anybody help me with what to put in and where to achieve this?
