Incorrect Date Format

    The date field in my form is formatted as DD/MM/YYYY but for some strange reason the email sent on form submission shows the date in YYYY/MM/DD format.

    I have checked the date settings in WP Admin > General Settings and the date format is set as d/m/Y.

    Wondering why this is happening and how to fix this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, you can use macros to format the output of the field value. Specifically for date formatting you need to replace your %field_name% with %field_name|format_date%

    In this case, the date format will match the one configured in your settings. If you need a different one, you can specify it directly like this: %field_name|format_date(Y-m-d H:i:s)%.
