Ability to change the date format in templates and course SMS'
It would be great if we could change the format of a date in templates and course SMS'.
Currently it automatically sends the date in the format dd/mm/yyyy but I think it would be good if we could change this to another format such as ''11th of May" or "11th of May 2017" for example.
I think that the written format looks nicer on course confirmations or reminders.

Great idea. The place I would really like to see this change is in the Certificate templates, where the date appears as (e.g.) "24-Feb-17".
I think "24th February 2017" is more typical for certificates and more professional-looking.
Rather than a permanent change to a particular format in these templates, it would be best to have the option to choose which date format we prefer.

Hi Cindy, good news, this can already be achieved with the certificates!
In the edit text box there should be a space called 'mask:' if you type - d mmm yyyy - in this section then the date format on the certificate should change to 12 May 2017.
I think you can find all of the different date mask formats types in the help guide.
