Hey all,

I've added a datefield to one of my DOM classes and added some configuration:

class NotulenItem extends DataObject {

    static $db = array(
        'Vergaderdatum' => 'Date'
    );

    function getCMSFields_forPopup() {
        $dateField = new DateField('Vergaderdatum');
        $dateField->setConfig('showcalendar', true);
        $dateField->setConfig('dateformat', 'dd/MM/YYYY');
        $dateField->setLocale('nl_NL');

        $fields = new FieldSet();
        $fields->push($dateField);
        return $fields;
    }

}

This works just about right, when I add a record to my page I see the date in the format I want (dd-mm-yyyy). When I then return to the overview of records that are attached to the page, the date is shown in the default format (yyyy-mm-dd). Is there some way I can influence the format of the Date in the DOM overview?

Cheers!

Yup.. just write a custom getter..

public function getNiceDate() {
return $this->obj('YourDatefield')->Format('d-m-Y');
}

and then in your fields array, just use "NiceDate" in place of the native date field in the DB.

Thank you very much for the fast reply, works like a charm :-)
