I suggest to also have the option to have something like: {format_data:human_time_diff}??
Not sure if applicable and what would be the used case here (transferring one date into another format). Anyway, I have not tried it yet but the dynamic filter already exists
{post_date:human_time_diff} – outputs the date difference in a human readable format such as “1 hour”, “5 mins”, “2 days”
I got something like this:
{format_date @date:‘{query_api @key:‘date’}’ @from:‘Y-m-d\TH:i:sO’ @to:‘M d, Y’} - it would still be nice if we could show the human_time_diff
you mean the bricks dynamic filter :human_time_diff doesn’t work in your case?
do you mean something like this:
{format_date @date:‘{query_api @key:‘date’}’ @from:‘Y-m-d\TH:i:sO’ @to:‘M d, Y’:human_time_diff} - that’s not working and screws up: this is what I get: ‘Dec 12, 2025’:0300000012pm12_315812America/Phoenix_1258ff
no instead {format_date @date:‘{query_api @key:‘date’}’ @from:‘Y-m-d\TH:i:sO’ @to:‘human_time_diff’} but is it what you want to get?
I see - I understand now how it could be done to get something like Dec 11, 2025 - 1 day ago but that’s a lot of code to do this - at least it can be done

OH! Well, that explains that. Thanks.
Just updated to 2.2, and this is still not working.
