    Hello,

    i was able to get start and end dates of each event using a posts grid plugin, by this method: https://theme-one.com/docs/the-grid/#element_metadata, but even if d-m-Y date format is set in both plugins and in wordpress, date is shown Y-m-d.

    I’ve already contacted the grid plugin’s support, the answer was:

    If you are using a meta data (custom field) in your skin then The Grid just displays it as it is stored. The Grid never modifies content but only display it.

  • Dates are always stored as Y-m-d to databases, because that is the international technical format.

    Solved, my mistake was to put the placeholders in the grid plugin without the shortcode tags.

    Using a HTML/txt element in grid plugin with this code inside is the right way:

    [event]#EVENTDATES[/event]

    thank you for your help
