Hi,
I want to ETM:timecreated display format,
From Wednesday, 11 May 2016, 4:07 PM
To Wed, 11 May 16, 4:07 PM
I don't want to use java script to change it, i want directly modify in the code.
which php file i can modify it?
ETM:timecreated:date uses the format defined in the strftimedate lang string. By default it is %d %B %Y. You can customize it as desired. It would affect other time displays in Moodle that uses it but last time I checked there weren't too many of those.
Alternately, you can use the other field patterns to compose the time display. See Dataformfield_entrytime#Patterns for the list of available patterns.

Hi Itamar
As you mentioned ETM:timecreated:date uses the format defined in the strftimedate lang string. By default it is %d %B %Y. So if i want to customize it, which php file should change?
i prefer using this method instead of using Dataformfield_entrytime#Patterns. This is because, if i use ETM:timecreated:hour, it just change the hour format, but what i want is i am able to display whole date, and change some part format of it.
For example:
From Wednesday, 11 May 2016, 4:07 PM
To Wed, 11 May 16, 4:07 PM
Hi Iruma,
I guess I found the php file. If you want to change the strftimedate lang string in English, you will find the file langconfig.php in moodle/lang/en.
Documentation for date/time function is here. This change will affect your entire site, not only the Dataform module.
With kind regards,
Hartmut
With this approach you don't need to change the source code. You can customize lang strings via the standard Moodle UI at Site administration -> Language -> Language customization.
Hi All,
