To change date format in PHP, the code is as follows−
Example
<?php $date = "2019-11-11 05:25 PM"; echo "Displaying date...\n"; echo "Date = $date"; echo "\nDisplaying updated date...\n"; echo date('Y-m-d H:i', strtotime($date. ' + 20 days')); ?>
Output
This will produce the following output−
Displaying date... Date = 2019-11-11 05:25 PM Displaying updated date... 2019-12-01 17:25
Example
Let us now see another example−
<?php $date = date_create("2019-11-11"); echo "Displaying date...\n"; echo date_format($date,"Y/m/d H:i:s"); ?>
Output
This will produce the following output−
Displaying date... 2019/11/11 00:00:00
