📅 Master Date Formatting in Glide – Fix Date Issues & Build Dynamic Calendars!

Hey Gliders! :wave:

Are you struggling with date formatting, broken relations, or setting up a daily/monthly calendar in Glide? You’re not alone! Many users, including Maria Lindquist, have asked how to extract only the month and year from a date—and that’s just the tip of the iceberg when working with dates in Glide.

To help, I created a step-by-step video guide covering:
:white_check_mark: Extracting only the month & year from a date column
:white_check_mark: Fixing failing date relations (caused by hidden time components)
:white_check_mark: Building a dynamic daily & monthly calendar to track expenses or events

:film_projector: Watch the full tutorial here: :movie_camera: :point_right: https://youtu.be/X-67hJ-gtkQ?si=H9fvI2tPQmuBTBcQ

:bulb: Quick Tip:
If you need to format a date to display only the month & year, use:
:small_blue_diamond: MMMM yyyy“February 2024”
:small_blue_diamond: MM/yyyy“02/2024”

For relations to work, both date columns must have the exact same format!

🔍 Bonus: If you’re looking for a way to skip the setup and start using a ready-made solution, you might want to check out a little hidden gem in the YouTube video description. 😉
