Date output modifier not working

I have a tv with date data which I call at a tpl inside a getpage. Outpuit date format of the tv is %A %e %b.

My tv name is DMY. With [[+tv.DMY]] i get date name, date number and month. Is there a way to filter this placeholder to show me only date name, or date number, or month?

I kow about output modifiers but when I put [[+tv.DMY:time=`%a`]] I get same result with this %a %e %b. I want only %a to be displayed.

I also tried [[!+tv.DMY:time=`%a`]] and still nothing.

Anybody can help? [ed. note: gordonas last edited this post 12 years, 11 months ago.]

Try [[!+tv.DMY:strtotime:date=`%a`]]

Try [[!+tv.DMY:strtotime:date=`%a`]]

Didn't work either! This outputs nothing.

I must make a correction. [[+tv.DMY:date=`%a`]] displays nothing also!

It seems like date parameter doesn't work at all. Cached or uncached makes no difference. Modx version is 2.2.8-pl.

It does work, I use it myself extensively. Something must be wrong with your TV configuration.
[[*mytv:strtotime:date=`%a`]] should work fine.

Input Type: Date
Output Type: Date and Date Format: %a, %e, %b

Nothing else...

Set the output to default. You need Unix time format in order to filter the date. That's why you use strtotime in the output modifier.

Alleluia!!!
It works but [[+tv.DMY:strtotime:date=`%a`]] not [[!+tv.DMY:strtotime:date=`%a`]].

Thank you man, I owe you!
