How can I change the language of publication dates in Webflow CMS collection from English to Portuguese?

To change the language of publication dates in Webflow CMS collection from English to Portuguese, you would need to follow these steps:

1. Access your Webflow project editor and navigate to the "Settings" tab.
2. In the "General" section, you will find the "Site Language" option. Click on the dropdown menu and select "Portuguese" as the desired language.
3. Once you have selected the language, scroll down and click the "Save Changes" button to apply the language settings to your project.

By changing the site language to Portuguese, all the default date formats in Webflow will be updated accordingly. This will affect how dates are displayed throughout your website, including the publication dates in the CMS collection.

However, if you want to customize the format further, you may need to use custom code or modify the collection template. Here's an example of how you can achieve this using custom code:

1. Open the CMS template where you want to display the publication dates.
2. Add a new Text element to the template and give it a class or ID for targeting (e.g., "published-date").
3. Switch to the custom code tab in the settings panel for that template.
4. In the "Head Code" section, add the following code:

```html

```

This code uses JavaScript to target all elements with the "published-date" class and converts their text content (assumed to be in the default date format) to a formatted Portuguese date using the `toLocaleDateString()` function.

5. Save the changes and go back to the designer to publish your site.

Now, the publication dates in your CMS collection should be displayed in Portuguese according to the specified format. Remember to update the class or ID of the Text element in the code if you use a different selector.
