[Qgis-user] Date formula in Layout label

[Patrick Dunford]

Good day

When I create a layout and put a text label in it I want to be able to 
show the current date using a formula. This formula can look something 
like [%format_date( $now,"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm")%]

I have to put this in square brackets so that the formula is executed 
instead of it just appearing as plain text. However when displayed on 
the page, the square brackets are included in the output. How do I get 
rid of them so that I just have the numbers of the date and time displayed?
