Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for your reply! I’ve browsed the Letters.pm and DateUtils.pm
(format_sqldatetime) code a bit, but I’m not clear on what the underlying issue
might be! I’ve created a bug report describing the behavior I see in 17.11.10:

I am not sure it's a regression actually.
in master it has been fixed by
commit a236b684fdae8e0da83ca7263b948da971dfc849
Bug 17981: Add a preview mode for notice templates

my $values = $values_in ? { %$values_in } : {};

Hi Arturo,
I do recreate on 17.11.10, not master. Can you open a bug report?
You should not need to specify the dateonly filter for dateexpiry, it's
automatically truncated to only display the date part (as there is no time
part!)

Jonathan

Thank you for your help, Katrin! As a follow up, I attempted to use the
dateonly placeholder for our membership expiry notice, but the generated
e-mails did not display as expected. In the notice, I used the following text
exactly, with a space before and after the pipe character: "Your account will
expire on <<borrowers.dateexpiry | dateonly>>." But the notices that were
generated say: "Your account will expire on <>" (with an empty left and right
angle brackets.
Our library is on Koha 17.11.10, and looking at the database schema, I see that
the borrowers.dateexpiry column is "date", not "datetime", so that could be the
reason why the dateonly placeholder doesn't work? But if that's the case, why
is the "12:00 AM" added if the db column is a date, not a datetime?

Hi Arturo,
try adding | dateonly to your placeholder variable like this:
<< biblio.timestamp | dateonly >>
Hope this helps,
