How do you add a custom Drupal date format. I want to display the date without hours and minutes, but the options don't include it.

You can create a new date/time format using the standard PHP date/time formatting tokens by navigating to Admin > Configuration > Regional and Language > Date and Time and clicking on the Formats tab (admin/config/regional/date-time/formats).
Specifying a custom format DDDD DD would produce dates that show the Weekday and the Day, as shown below. Specifying a custom format yy-mm-dd (dddd) would produce dates in the format 18-01-04 (Thursday). Specifying a custom format "Q"1 YYYY would produce dates that show Q1 2018.
Get the date field programmatically $datetime = new DrupalDateTime($node->get('field_datetime')->value, 'UTC'); $date_formatter = \Drupal::service('date. formatter'); $date = $date_formatter->format($datetime->getTimestamp(), 'custom', 'Y-m-d H:i'); // For datetime fields you can also do this.
Do the following:
Administration » Configuration » Regional and language » Date and Time
There you will see a tab for format.
Create a new format string "Y-M-d".
Make this as your default for all date fields and you won't see the seconds any more.
You don't need the date module for basic formatting.
