CakePHP 3.4
How can I print a date with the name of the day but not hours ?
i18nFormat([\IntlDateFormatter::FULL, \IntlDateFormatter::SHORT])
shows dates with hours, minutes and seconds.
What if I want Sunday April 24 2019 ?
in https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/core-libraries/time.html#Cake\I18n\Time::i18nFormat there is a link with formatting options http://www.icu-project.org/apiref/icu4c/classSimpleDateFormat.html#details
also you can use https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/core-libraries/time.html#setting-the-default-locale-and-format-string to be able to use it like
<?= $entity->some_date ?>
Thank you for answering.
<?= $entity->some_date ?>
does not work all the time.
I have a field (type = time) so data is formatted 10:15:00 but <?= $entity->some_date ?> prints today’s date + 10:15:00.
well you need to set how you want to display it, its in link i gave
You can pass any standard date format string to the format function, so $entity->some_date->format('l F j Y') should do the job for you here, if you need that format only in certain places.
Thank you, we’re close 
This works fine but months and days are in English.
Why doesn’t it rely on the defaultLocale ?
