5.13. Date

⁠5.13. Date

These variables control how the date is displayed. The default is ISO 8601 formatting.

Please refer to the PHP manual for details on available formatting options.

$g_short_date_format: This format is used in the bug listing pages (eg: View Bugs). Default is Y-m-d.
$g_normal_date_format: This format is used in the view/update bug pages, bug notes, manage section, and news section. Default is Y-m-d H:i.
$g_complete_date_format: This format is used on the top of each page (current time) and the emails that are sent out. Default is Y-m-d H:i T.
$g_datetime_picker_format: This format is used with the datetime picker widget. Default is Y-MM-DD HH:mm.
Note
The formatting convention for the DateTime picker is different from the one used for the other date settings described above; see Moment.js documentation for details.
Warning
This format needs to match the one defined in $g_normal_date_format. Inconsistencies between these two settings, e.g. using different date ordering (DMY, MDY or YMD) or displaying the month as a number vs a word or abbreviation, may result in unexpected behavior such as an invalid interpretation of the date by the DateTime picker widget, or errors trying to save a modified date.
