 * Hello!

    But not like date format: yyyy-
   mm-dd hh:mm:ss How I change date format to dd.mm.yyyy ?

 * Haven’t quite had the time to implement a working example, but something along
   the lines of [http://jsfiddle.net/adamculpepper/rHXcp/](http://jsfiddle.net/adamculpepper/rHXcp/)
   could work.
 * On my install, all the ‘$’ must be replaced with ‘jQuery’…

 * **Better answer**:
 * `[summarize_posts post_type="your_custom" orderby="post_title" order="ASC" date_format
   ="M d, Y"]<li>[+post_title+] - post date: [+post_date+]</li>;[/summarize_posts]`
 * See the ‘date_format’ section of [https://code.google.com/p/wordpress-custom-content-type-manager/wiki/get_posts](https://code.google.com/p/wordpress-custom-content-type-manager/wiki/get_posts)
   for details
