Hot Tip!
This modifier returns a copy of the date — the original variable is left untouched for any additional modifiers.
Warning!
Date modifiers preserve the date value's timezone by default. Dated entries use UTC. Enable localize_dates_in_modifiers in config/statamic/system.php to convert dates to your display timezone before applying modifiers.
Please refer to our Timezones guide for more information.
