 * Hello,
 * I’m trying to format the date which this function returns:
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_lastpostdate](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_lastpostdate)
 * so that is reads DD/MM/YYYY
 * It doesn’t appear that there is format control built into the function; can anyone
   point me in the right direction?
 * Thanks,
