Please help us help you and fill where relevant:
Your LimeSurvey version:  LimeSurvey Community Edition   Version 5.4.15+221212
Own server or LimeSurvey hosting: Own
Survey theme/template: Fruity
==================
I need help please.
I need to display the full date (e.g. Wednesday, 1999/12/02) in a text display question piped from a previous date/time question.

Q1. Select the transaction date
Q2. Confirm that [date selected in Q1] is correct

I can pipe the date selected [ {q1.shown] } but how do I include the day of week within this?

First create a UNIX timestamp with "strtotime(q1)"
then use the "date" function with your desired format,
like
{date('l, Y/m/d',strtotime(q1))}

Read the manual about "implemented functions"
