A short guide on how to change the date from English to German in Webflow. Unfortunately, this is not possible out of the box, but with a little custom code, it works wonderfully. Do you just have to weigh up how much it is worth the effort or whether the EN abbreviations may also be sufficient or even just a date can be shown.

You can also insert the long code in the project settings under Custom Code if you need to translate a date on most Webflow CMS pages. If it is only on a few, it is worthwhile to store the code in the page settings, as it won't load everywhere.

You must include the second shorter code wherever you want to translate the date in the pages.

👉 You can get the code here:
