I have a confirmation email. In the confirmation email i print the Date of the event (Date field) in the e-mail body by [entity-fetched:field_event_date].

This is working fine but the Date is printed like 2016-04-13 16:30:00 to 2016-04-13 20:00:00

How do i print a custom Date format like i.e. 09-Jan-2016 in my email body?

[Updated] You will need to have the Token and Entity Token modules enabled. Then you'll print custom date format with the following token 

[entity-fetched:field-event-date:value:custom:d-M-Y]

the token should produce the date in the format 

09-Jan-2016

refer to PHP Manual for custom date formats.

  • I have both above modules enabled. But when i put [entity-fetched:field_event_date:value:custom:d-M-Y . Its blank. It doesn't show anything. I also tried [entity-fetched:field_event_date:custom:d-M-Y What could be the problem?
