Date Contact Merge Fields

0 Votes

It would great if we could format how we wanted to see a date formatted for a contact merge field in an email. Often times i find myself having to convert dates to text fields and uploading those instead because the date does not format how I want. Additionally, it would be very helpful to also have time fields or DateTime fields as I also usually need times in my merge fields.

Hi @WarrenL73 currently dates being added into contact details do have to be in mm/dd/yyyy format. What kind of date format would you be looking for instead? How would you expect a time field to be formatted?

At this time, we do not have plans to allow for changes or adjustments to the date format in a contact field. If we hear anything in the future regarding this feature request, we will update the thread.
