Hi,

You can't do this in sightly, you need to do in java/sling model

    Hi @hptarora ,

     

    In Sling Model, something like below-

     

    @Model(adaptables = Resource.class)
    public class MyModel {

    @Inject
    private String myDate;

    /**
    * @return the myDate
    */
    public String getMyDate() {

    String lastModified = //Get the String
    return new SimpleDateFormat("dd-M-yyyy hh:mm:ss").format(lastModified);
    }

    }

      <div>${'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm' @format=htl.publishDate , timezone='UTC'}</div>
      <div>${'EEEE, d MMM y' @format=htl.publishDate , timezone='UTC', locale='en'}</div>
