    Hi team , 

    I would like to change my date format to appear with day like this 
    Friday, 12/01/2018 on my auto responder mail.

    Right now am using "date picker" widget 

    If I use future date will it be able to appear as the format I mention above?

    Pls let me know. 

    Thanks

    Yes it is possible to achieve your requirement by adding the following tag in the subject line of your auto-responder / notification email alert:

    {DATE:l, d-m-Y}

    Please check the screenshot below:

    I tested this in one of my own form and the date was displayed correctly. Please check the screenshot below:

    You can change the separator from "-" to "/".

    To display the date as you have  explained kindly add the tag {date} to your email template. This will pick the date you have chosen from the date picker as shown below.
