Date field as field in the Admin Page List?

[Ralf]

Hi,

there are in the meantime a lots of Q&As about the Admin Page List but actually I missed one.

Is it possible to output a "Date"-Field ??

Because only with the name of the Field I get back a Timestamp...

Thanks

Hi Ralf,

Does the date field have an output format set?

I've never attempted to show a date field in the admin list, but that's where I would start.

[Ralf]

shame over me it was tooo late last night...

you are right, my date field haven´t an output format set because I didn´t need it until now.

No worries, I work late a lot myself. Glad to help.

That is the topic I was looking for... What if I need to output a created date? Could not find output formatting for it.

I don't think this is an option - I think you need to format yourself with something like PHP's date()

[LostKobrakai]

created is a native field without fieldtype, therefore there's no formatted to unformatted distinction (which is part of fieldtypes logic).

[Ivan Gretsky]

So there is no way to format it in List of fields to display in the admin Page List template config? I could not put no php functions like date() in there. Am I missing something obvious?

You can use a hook to append a formatted created date to the end of the page list label. In /site/ready.php...

$this->addHookAfter('ProcessPageListRender::getPageLabel', function($event) {
	$page = $event->arguments('page');
	$created = date('d/m/y', $page->created);
	$event->return .= " $created";
});

Where to use this hook?  In a module? 

[KarlvonKarton]

Never mind...  In the ready.php of course...  Sorry for being too quick and not testing first ;-)
