Date formating in QGIS expression
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
My expression day(now()) || '/' || month(now()) || '/' || year(now())
returns current date as 15/4/2019, but I want to get the date in dd/mm/yyyy format i.e. 15/04/2019, how can I get it. QGIS desktop version 2.18.12.

You need to use the format_date
expression.
format_date(now(),'dd/MM/yyyy')
Please read the documentation of the format_date
expression in QGIS Expression dialog to have all possibilities.
It returns date like 15/53/2019....which is impossible.

QGIS 2.18.12 is very old. The last of the 2.18 is 2.18.28 from January 2019. Maybe a bug has been fixed in the mean time? And QGIS 2.18 is not maintained anymore. Do you have theMM
expression in your expression dialog documentation?

Yeah, 'MM' seems to be working fine, I think 2.18 wrongly reads 'mm'.
