Multiple date formats on date property in personalization

Hi HubSpot,
Right now there is no way to change the date format on date properties in personalization on e-mails. The date property will always display in US format (mm/dd/yyyy). These dates can be very confusing and mislead europeans customers who are used to the dd/mm/yyyy format. Therefore, I am hoping that we get can get enough votes here and have the ability to choose multiple date formats on date properties in personalization on emails.

Thanks,
Christian

Hi @mpherr ,

 

Can you please send pictures of the where you are looking at these date formats so i know we are referencing the same screens. The following from your original post:

 

"in emails and logs"

And "in the dashboards"

 

Thank you,

 

Shane

Hi @khughes ,

 

Thank you for this idea, we are aware of this as a pain point and are reviewing how we can tackle this, but this is not planned for development in the next quarter. For transparency and clarity, I am updating this issue to 'Not currently planned' for the time being. I will update here once we have plans in place.

 

Best,

Shane

@sejal_parikhFYI - This is a basic feature that should be included with HubSpot

I don't know if it helps anyone but I have a workaround for this issue by using custom code within a workflow if it is still a problem. Feel free to reach out if you would like me to give you the details. If there are a few then I will just post it as a reply here.
