Due to a very extensive plugin I do not want to mess in the core files to change the dateFormat
. Calling the dateFormat
in an alternative script is not bringing any changes, so I am looking for an alternative solution. This is my case:
Based on this thread and answer I wanted to change the existing dd-mm-yy
datepicker format into a d MM
format. I had to hide the year with jQuery from the datepicker and the input field, by using the previous mentioned source:
jQuery('#user_birthday').datepicker({
beforeShow: function (input, inst) {
inst.dpDiv.addClass('no-year-shown');
},
onClose: function(dateText, inst){
inst.dpDiv.removeClass('no-year-shown');
}
});
The years disappeared with this great solution, however the outcome is for example: December\07
while the original displayed dateformat was 07-12-2018
. How do I override this, so it's 7 December
(EU format).
