Is it possible to format the "{//Generated}" timestamp to something a little more human-friendly? The default format is:  2019-06-04T16:06:02.9272327Z

 

Thanks!

  Hello Michael,

  Thank you for your interest in our templates. I definitely understand how having those dates and times be more readable by humans. Allow me to introduce you to the function sw:ToShortDate() which will format your date as m_d_yyyy when saving. Implementing it is simple, simply use as follows in place of what you currently have:

  {sw:ToShortDate(//Generated)}

  Alternatively, if you need the time as well, use sw:ToShortDateTime()

  If you have any advanced questions on templates I would be more than happy to open a ticket on your behalf.

  Have a great day & happy shipping,

  Robert K
