Symfony, twig, date

Easy question but i could find answer here: http://twig.sensiolabs.org/doc/filters/date.html

I have this: user.birthday|date("Y\m\d")

but the output is to example: 19930224

and i want to separate it buy "/" to example like: 1993/02/24

Any idea? Thx!

In the date() function, you need to escape \ with a second one as \\.

And as said in the twig documentation:

To escape words and characters in the date format use \\ in front of each character

So you need to escape it as following in your twig template:

{{ user.birthday|date('Y\\\\m\\\\d') }}

You cannot use backslash \ because it is used for escaping characters. You can use / instead.
