Convert a date format in PHP

Question

I am trying to convert a date from yyyy-mm-dd to dd-mm-yyyy (but not in SQL); however I don\'t know how the date function requires a timestamp, and

Answer 1

You can change the format using the date() and the strtotime().

$date = '9/18/2019';

echo date('d-m-y',strtotime($date));

Result:

18-09-19

We can change the format by changing the ( d-m-y ).
