    <p> I have the following code in a formatter:</p>

      value="${cms:convertDate(content.value.ProjektDatum)}"
      dateStyle="LONG"  type="date" /></i></p><br>
                  </c:if><br>

    <p>     <c:if
      test="${cms.element.settings['enable_untertitel']}"><br>
              <h3 class="post-title" ${content.rdfa.Title}><br>
                  ${content.value.Title}<br>
              </h3><br>
              </c:if><br>

    <div class="moz-signature"><br>
      Actually, what I want to achieve is to make the output of the date
      dependent on the widget setting "showDate".<br>
      <br>
      But just for the understanding: where is param.showDate wired
      resp. how does it function?<br>
