o ordinal suffix text st nd rd th (E.G., 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th)
The count of pattern letters determine the format.
Text: If the number of pattern letters is 4 or more, the full form is used;
otherwise a short or abbreviated form is used if available.
Number: The minimum number of digits. Shorter numbers are zero-padded to this
amount.
Year: Numeric presentation for year and weekyear fields are handled
specially. For example, if the count of y is 2, the year will be displayed
as the zero-based year of the century, which is two digits.
Month: 3 or over, use text, otherwise use number.
Zone: Z outputs offset without a colon, ZZ outputs the offset with a
colon, ZZZ or more outputs the zone id.
Zone names: Time zone names (‘z’) cannot be parsed.
Any characters in the pattern that are not in the ranges of ['a'..'z'] and
['A'..'Z'] will be treated as quoted text. For instance, characters like :,
., <space>, # and ? will appear in the resulting time text even they are
not embraced within single quotes."}
I have my page title format set as:
:journal/page-title-format "EEEE, MMM do, yyyy"
And that renders to: Friday, Aug 9th, 2024.
It’s alright. When I want to manually create a linked reference to the date then I need to use the /date picker because I have no idea what day of the week any given day will be. That’s a bit of an annoyance, but whatever.
