[Solved] News date formatting?

[ravonet]

I would like to change the News module date format from:

jan 15, 2009 ...to... 15-01-2009

But I can't figure out how to do this.

I'm using CMS MS 1.5.1 and News 2.9.1 and in my news-template I use: {$entry->postdate|cms_date_format}

I've searched the forum and found this code: {news number="2" dateformat=" %d %B %Y"} but then I get this error: Warning: Parameter dateformat is not known... dropped in /home/www/mydomain.com/lib/misc.functions.php

I've found other solutions as well but with same error result.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

You could either modify it in GlobalSettings at the bottom, for the general dateformat....

Or put something like

{$entry->postdate|cms_date_format:"%d-%m-%Y"}

in your template... No need for the parameter to be called in the News-calling.
