  • Other info: When you want to include a date in your journal style, you can choose whether to write it out in full or use an abbreviated format. Core2 sets up the possible options, and layout writers can choose between them. You shouldn't normally override this function, unless you're writing a language layer and want to translate the names of months and days and the formats.

The English defaults are:

short : 4/30/09
med : Apr. 30th, 2009
long : April 30th, 2009
med-day : Thurs, Apr. 30th, 2009
long-day : Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Note that all English language defaults define the date in the order month-day-year.

To use a particular date format in your layout, add
date_format("X")
to the date-related variable. (Replace X with whatever format you want.)

If you want to use a custom date format, you can construct it using the following symbols, mixed in with punctuation or text of your choice:

Day names
---------
%%da%% : Mon, Tues etc
%%day%% : Monday, Tuesday etc

Date numbers
---------
%%d%% : 1 - 31
%%dd%% : 01 - 31
%%dayord%% : 1st - 31st

Month names
---------
%%mon%% : Jan, Feb etc
%%month%% : January, February etc
%%m%% : Month 1 - 12
%%mm%% : Month 01 - 12

Year formats
---------
%%yy%% : 2 digit year eg 09
%%yyyy%% : 4 digit year eg 2009
