    Hello,

    I have a ditto call : 
    [[Ditto?parents=`38` &display=`5` &removeChunk=`Comments` &tpl=`DittoTemplateCenter` &language=`francais-utf8` &sortDir=`DESC` &paginate=`1` &paginateAlwaysShowLinks=`1` &id=`arc` &dateSource=`pub_date`]]


    The problem is that the date are in unix format, for example : "Published date : 1222502681."

    Could anyone please help me ?

        I guess you are using [+pub_date+] in your Ditto template chunk ’DittoTemplateCenter’.
        I think replacing [+pub_date+] with [+date+] should work.
