• Convert one date format into another in PHP 15 answers

I trying to get a date in the d/m/Y H:i format. Here's my code

$dateStr = "28/07/2016 10:00";
echo date('d/m/Y H:i', strtotime($dateStr));

Here's the ouput:

01/01/1970 01:00

I trying to convert to other formats, but the result still the same date. I know this kind of obvious but still can't understand why i'm getting that date as result.

You can use DateTime class and it's createFromFormat method to parse the string to date in required format.

Like this,

$date = DateTime::createFromFormat('d/m/Y H:i', "28/07/2016 10:00");
$date = $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s');
echo $date;
