Format Custom Field Block

    I know others have asked if you can wrap a custom field in a href tag, which would indeed be great, I am actually curios if there is a PHP filter I can use with custom fields to re format a date field. This solution could also work with links I think.

    Example: I have a deadline-date field that returns YYYY-MM-DD and I would like to display Month DD, YYYY (e.g. October 7, 2022)

    If I can filter on field name, I could rewrite how ever I need, something like this…

    
if ( ('deadline-date' === $field_name ) && ($content != '')) {
			return '<strong>Deadline:</strong> ' . date( get_option('date_format'), strtotime( $content ) );
		}
	
		if ( ('email' === $field_name ) && ($content != '')) {
			return '<a href="mailto:'.$content.'">'.$content.'</a>';
		}

    Hello there!

    I guess the date format should be configured either at deadline-date field settings or at global WordPress settings at Dashboard > Settings > General.
    Please explain your question/request in more detail if I did not get it correctly.
