Hi,
Really find it difficult to use the tagDiv composer. I’m not able to see how exactly can I edit the date time format to follow “F j, Y” when clearly the date has leading zeroes.
On my version of Forest Beat https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_forest_beat_pro/
– The first hero article has “F j, Y” (no leading zeroes)
– The article “Forest Management: Balancing Ecology and Economy” has “F d, Y” (leading zeroes)
Not sure why there’s inconsistencies. Also nowhere in tagDiv editor can you edit the datetime format??
It seems like I’ve to dig into the TDB shortcodes to find out that there “M d, Y” is hidden inside there.
But interestingly, certain elements e.g. flex block builder, that contains posts inside it with dates, I cannot click into the date visually to edit the date format. Is it intended?
^ Clicking into the date, will not allow me to edit anything. Does this mean the post template is hidden elsewhere?
Hi,
It will be need to use tagDiv Composer to edit the single post template, select the element and check teh settings from it – https://i.imgur.com/uOffDzS.png – https://i.imgur.com/x8HlKzb.png
Thank you!
Yep that works for single post template, I managed to edit the date time format.
However it seems for posts (w/ title, description, categories, date, reading time) inside a Flex Block Builder that came with the default Forest Beat example, there’s no way to edit the “date element” inside the Flex Block Builder. Clicking on the date brings me to the “Flex Block Builder” instead of the date element.
So it’s still not working for me specifically for the posts on Forest Beat homepage. Still has its own date time format.
I had to dig into the source code (i.e. via Edit instead of tagDiv composer) to find out:
[tdb_flex_block_builder limit=”2″ tdc_css=”eyJhbGwiOnsibWFyZ2luLWJvdHRvbSI6IjAiLCJkaXNwbGF5IjoiIn19″ cloud_tpl_module_id=”23″ modules_on_row=”eyJhbGwiOiI1MCUiLCJwaG9uZSI6IjEwMCUifQ==” modules_gap=”eyJhbGwiOiI0MCIsInBvcnRyYWl0IjoiMzAifQ==” modules_vert_align=”stretch” all_modules_space=”eyJwaG9uZSI6IjMwIn0=” offset=”1″]
There’s no way to edit the date field inside tdb_flex_block_builder!
Hi,
There is no need to edit teh code, this will be lost when the theme is updated. Our theme has settings for everything you need. For a general type of date, you can even use wordpress settings – https://i.imgur.com/eSXiJ4L.png
Also, elements like the flex block builder are displaying built modules (made with tagDiv Composer) and can be edited with this – https://i.imgur.com/5QWDoQE.jpeg – https://i.imgur.com/vSewkTY.png – https://i.imgur.com/79byHhz.png
Thank you!
I see, yes indeed I found it in the modules! Did not know it’s there actually. Thanks. Got it fixed.
