Convert DD/MM/YYYY to YYYY/MM/DD ?

[Barand]

In my defence, he was looking for something that could be eval()'d

[PFMaBiSmAd]

The DOC for that 'parser' indicates it just wants an expression that produces an assignable value. The code probably does use eval internally to accomplish that, but that is not directly an issue. The OP is apparently testing using eval, but since the {item.xxx} is the parser's syntax to indicate data values and is not valid php, directly using eval should produce an error.

 

I'm going to guess the following might work -

 

{{date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime(str_replace('/','-',{item.StartDate})))}}
