I would like to display the date on which the project was built in my database templates.

Is there a way of doing this?

I can easily get the global template date but this isn't necessarily my build date.

Thanks 

You can use %%year%% %%longdate%% %%shortdate%% %%longtime%% %%shorttime%% or %%generaldate%% anywhere in content or template properties in order to include date related information.

Let me know if you need any more information.
