Hello, I want to use a basic text element to display dates, but I need the dates to appear in French. Unlike other date components, I don’t see an option to set the language to French. Is there a method to do this?
Hi @alexlem 
Have you tried the formatDate formula on the text element:
Here are the docs on the topic.
Does that help?
Hello @Joyce, thank you, it’s working! Before, I was using the date text component and didn’t find a way to change its language to French, like we could see in the date selector components.
However, using a standard text element combined with the formatDate function solved the issue - thanks!
Just a suggestion for the Weweb team: It would be really helpful if the date text component could automatically match the language of the page, just like the date picker component does.
