How can I change the display and format of date and time?

Authors list

You can customize the format that Deskpro uses to display dates and times in the Dates and Times section of Admin > Help Center > Settings. 

The formatting will apply to the Agent interface and Help Center.

Enter the option under the format character column from the table below, that corresponds to the date layout you want to display.

Example


The date format M j Y means that when the interface needs to display a date, it will display something like "Jan 1 2017". If you wanted it to display, "1st January 15", you would edit the Date format field to read "jS F y".
