Change the date format in Title Page

Post by templateuser »

Hi! I want the date to be like: 6th September 2013, instead of just September, 2013.

I tried with \date like:
{\large \date}\\[4cm] % Date

But I get the following error: "! Argument of \date has an extra }"

I tried with variants like:
{\large \date{\today}}

But the date is just not there, or I experience a broad collection of mistakes!

Your helo will be fully apreciated!

Rodrigo

Hey Rodrigo,

You need to open up Thesis.cls and remove or modify the following lines:

\def\today{\ifcase\month\or
January\or February\or March\or April\or May\or June\or
July\or August\or September\or October\or November\or December\fi
\space \number\year}
