I need to display Year from datetime field which input format is dd/mm/yyyy

How can I get title like this Record Title (yyyy)

Also same result needed when used range of two dates in datetime field to get year from second date.

And last question: If I display date and age in record, can I display age in title this way?

PS. As I know if I change composite title structure I need to use reindex tool to display new titles in frontend right? or will I need to edit/save each record?

Unfortunately reindex, does not update composite titles.

for date in title try [12::0] or [12::0] - [12::1]. Where:

  • 12 - ID fo the field
  • 0 - first date
  • 1 - last date

This [12::0] displays full date like this 2009-12-27 . Can I leave only year?

I tried another way: I have overriden in date field record creation time. Then checked if it was really overriden and it was, record which was added few weeks ago displays creation time 2009-12-17 which is date field value and its good. Then I added [DATE::Y] shortcode to title but it displays 2018 after title not 2009.

What can be done?

But even if I give up and use date field value using this shortcode [12::0], it will display this way 2009-12-27 but why? Everywhere I have set this markup for date dd-mm-YYYY

PS. If I used date field as birthdate and display in record like this [DATE] [AGE] can I get only age in composite title?

Unfortunately I cannot format in in composite title. In the code there title is formed, it doe snot even know what field it is.

What we are talking right now are filters for values. Something like this [12:0|lowcase]. That is getting too complicated.

Why cannot you use pseudo composite title?

In pseudo do you mean to add field code after title in template?

It's good solution but here is a question, can I change date field output directly in template code? as I will display in field list release date with output view DD-MM-YYYY, after title I want to display same field but only YYYY output.

Giorgi625 after title I want to display same field but only YYYY output.

I guess, you can apply a method from this topic... and format the raw value of the date/time field:

$item->fields_by_id[99]->value
