Re: Site wide date format
Wouldn't it be useful to use that setting as a default for the date filter, so you wouldn't need to specify a format every time? I could write a patch..

Re: Site wide date format
Thank you for the quick response - I think I'm going to go with the custom filter for maximum flexability On Jul 15, 9:25 am, "Brett Hoerner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, Jul 15, 2008 at 8:14 AM, Adam Peacock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Is this possible? > > Not with the current date filter.

Is this possible?

Site wide date format
I'm looking for a consistent way to format dates across my site, without having to put the format into every template. Is it possible to set a default date format for the "date" filter? For example, I want {{ var.date|date }} to format to {{ var.date|date:"l, F j Y" }} unless I specify otherwise, but still have the ability to format it differently in some cases. Is this possible? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
