[Solved] MVC Custom Editor Popup Static Date Formatting

[Craig]

Hi. I'm trying to add a Date as text to a custom editor popup in .NET MVC. It appears I cannot simply just do @Model.LastUpdatedDate to display the date. I do not want this in a DatePicker/Textbox. Searching the forums, I've encountered using ${LastUpdatedDate} and that displays the content; however I need to format the date as "7/9/2014 14:00" rather than what is displayed like "Wed Sep 10 14:22:55 EDT 2014." Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

Hello Craig,

I would suggest using the toString method in the template expression. For example: 

${kendo.toString(LastUpdatedDate, 'g')}
