Dynamic Dates And Times With Variables

Within a custom text button you can add a dynamic date and/or time within the phrase.

The format is {{ date:"dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm" }}  using the Unicode date format patterns. There's a great site to test out the formats at NSDateFormatter.com.

Examples:

Using it in a phrase:

For example you could create a phrase:

Today is {{ date:"EEEE" }} and the month is {{ date:"MMM" }}

Which would print our something like:

Today is Wednesday and the month is Nov

Offsetting the time:

You can offset the time in hours:

{{ datehouroffset:"EEEE, MMM d, yyyy", 24 }}

or use a negative to go to the past

{{ datehouroffset:"EEEE, MMM d, yyyy", -8 }}
