`dateFormat` converts a timestamp string `INPUT` into the format specified by the `LAYOUT` string.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
{{ dateFormat "Monday, Jan 2, 2006" "2015-01-21" }} → "Wednesday, Jan 21, 2015"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
{{% warning %}}
|
||
As of v0.19 of Hugo, the `dateFormat` function is *not* supported as part of Hugo's [multilingual feature](/content-management/multilingual/).

See [Go’s Layout String](/functions/format/#gos-layout-string) to learn about how the `LAYOUT` string has to be formatted. There are also some useful examples.
|
||
|
||
See the [`time` function](/functions/time/) to convert a timestamp string to a Go `time.Time` type value.
