Hi,
use custom format for these fields on the "View as" settings dialog on the Visual EDitor tab.

Here is a sample:

$value = date("d/m/y",strtotime($value));


$value = date("h:i",strtotime($value));

This was helpfull as I needed this too. However, I also need to adjust for local time. Ie PST time.
How can I adjust this when I add a new record. I am using TIMESTAMP for the MySQL database and PHPRunner only displays the date, so i have a second field to display the time.
Is there a global setting for this? Or any ideas?

Hi,
check additional parameters of date() function here:

To modify entered value before adding to the database use Before record added event on the Events tab.
