Change the date format

How to change the date/time format in FortiMail? The current format does not match our national environment and is too long. I would like to use a custom date format in Custom Email Template when using variables.

To change the date/time format in FortiMail and use a custom date format in custom email templates when using variables, you can follow these steps:

 

1. Access the FortiMail web interface.

2. Navigate to System > Customization > Custom Email Template.

3. Select the template you want to edit or create a new one.

4. When editing the template, use the appropriate variable for date/time (e.g., %%TIME_BEGIN%%).

5. To customize the date/time format, you can use HTML tags or custom formatting within the template. 6. Save the changes and apply the custom email template.

 

By customizing the email template with the desired date/time format, you can tailor it to match your national environment and make it more suitable for your needs.

I have no problem changing the appearance of the date. I have a problem to change the content. The variable displays the date like this:Thu, 06 Aug 2024 04:50:06 +0200

I need to send this: 6. 8. 2024 4:50

Where can I set the date and time formats in the FortiMail interface?
