Formatting date and time for blocklist elements in backend

Questions
1

Hi,

I’m trying to format a DateTime field in a blocklist:

{{ timeStart | date:'HH:mm' }} - {{ timeEnd | date:'HH:mm' }}: {{ text }}

But this just shows the date and time in its full format like this:

2025-02-21 14:00:00 - 2025-02-21 16:00:00

Can anyone see whats wrong or why this won’t work? I’ve used the “Umbraco Angular tips and tricks page” here as inspiration:

and this source:

It seems that no matter what i write, it will output the full date and time in the backoffice!

Hi Kåre,

I think this thread might be of help to you:

Specifically the post about using a custom angular filter for formatting the datetime string.

Hope that helps!
