Hi again ;)
I'm stuck with the datetime function as described in http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/reference/template_operators/formatting/datetime
Here's a snippet from the template:{$item.data_map.date|datetime('custom', '%d.%m.%Y')}
date is a field defined as Date (month, day, year).
The above expressions returns 01.01.1970, regardless the value the field actually holds. So I think I make a mistake in how I use datetime. Any hints are much appreciated.
Regards, Sascha

Sascha,
Try this instead:
{$:item.data_map.date.content.timestamp|datetime( 'custom', '%d.%m.%Y')}

Hi Ole,
thanks, will try asap.
Are these item.data_map.date._content.timestamp_ things documentated? If not, where else can I look them up?

You can use the attribute template function to view the content of any array/object/hash you might have.
Example:
{$:item.data_map.date.content|attribute(show)}
More info on the attribute function:http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/reference/template_operators/miscellaneous/attribute

After {let xxx_list=fetch (...) and{section var=xxx loop=$xxx_list}
to access each xxx date attribute content just do
{$xxx.item.object.data_map.<xxx_date_atribute_name>.data_int|datetime('custom', '%Y.%m.%d')}
generically for any int content attribute use:$xxx.item.object.data_map.<xxx_int_atribute_name>.data_int
generically for any int content attribute use:$xxx.item.object.data_map.<xxx_text_atribute_name>.data_text
This did work for me (until now).
Note: I'm an ezPublish starter aprendice sorry if i missed something.
