Sometimes we need to change the date format in PHP for example date is stored in a database YYYY-MM-DD format but when showing this date on the public web need to show DD-MM-YYYY so in this post I will teach you how to change the date format in PHP
<?php
$RegistrationDate = "2022-05-20";
//if you want date formate like ("DD-MM-YYYY")
$NewRegistrationDate = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($RegistrationDate));
echo "New date format is: ".$NewRegistrationDate;
echo "<br>";
//if you want date formate like ("MM-DD-YYYY")
$NewRegistrationDate = date("m-d-Y", strtotime($RegistrationDate));
echo "New date format is: ".$NewRegistrationDate;
?>
