I am writing a Django web application and using Material Kit(Bootstrap) for front end. I want to display the date on the html in the format of mm/dd/yyyy.
e.g.
06/27/2018
I view date in database table, and it is already in the format of mm/dd/yyyy.
I have no idea why it's display in the .html in the format of
June,28 2018
I think it's because of Material Kit, but I don't have idea any how to convert or override the function. Please help!
If you have set USE_TZ = True in settings.py then date and time information stored in database are in UTC, and transformed to the local date or time in templates w.r.t TIME_ZONE value given in settings.py
And also you can change the default date format, by defining DATE_FORMAT in settings.py, its default value is in 'N j, Y' format. So you can try changing that to DATE_FORMAT = 'm/d/Y'
OR
If you want the date value to be in specific format in templates you can do
{{ date_value|date:'m/d/Y' }}
