Variable: org-odt-use-date-fields

org-odt-use-date-fields is a customizable variable defined in ox-odt.el.gz.

Value

nil

Documentation

Non-nil, if timestamps should be exported as date fields.

When nil, export timestamps as plain text.

When non-nil, map org-timestamp-custom-formats to a pair of OpenDocument date-styles with names "OrgDate1" and "OrgDate2" respectively. A timestamp with no time component is formatted with style "OrgDate1" while one with explicit hour and minutes is formatted with style "OrgDate2".

This feature is experimental. Most (but not all) of the common
%-specifiers in format-time-string are supported.
Specifically, locale-dependent specifiers like "%c", "%x" are formatted as canonical Org timestamps. For finer control, avoid these %-specifiers.

Textual specifiers like "%b", "%h", "%B", "%a", "%A" etc., are displayed by the application in the default language and country specified in org-odt-styles-file. Note that the default styles file uses language "en" and country "GB". You can localize the week day and month strings in the exported document by setting the default language and country either using the application UI or through a custom styles file.

See org-odt--build-date-styles for implementation details.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Org version
8.0.
