    Trying to format date from Umbraco.DateTime property gives "No overload for method 'ToString' takes 1 arguments"

    Using Umbraco And Getting Started
    Umbraco 8

    I have the following code: 

    timespan.Value("startTime").ToString("d. MMMM yyyy kl. HH.mm");

    Where timespan.Value("startTime") comes from an Umbraco.DateTime property.

    This gives me the error: "No overload for method 'ToString' takes 1 arguments".

    How can I format the date without errors?

    Did you try casting, converting or specifying the DateTime?

    timespan.Value<DateTime>(...).ToString(...)

((DateTime)timespan.Value(...)).ToString(...)

Convert.ToDateTime(timespan.Value(...)).ToString(...)

    Cool - that works for me: 

    var startTime = timespan.Value<DateTime>("startTime");
var startTimeString = startTime.ToString("d. MMMM kl. HH.mm");
