Hi

For the case, open templatesja_opalhtmlmod_janewsblog_item.php file, at about line 43, find following code:


<h4 class="jazin-title"><a href="<?php echo $link;?>" title="<?php echo strip_tags($row->title);?>"><?php echo $row->title;?></a></h4>

and change to:

<h4 class="jazin-title"><a href="<?php echo $link;?>" title="<?php echo strip_tags($row->title);?>"><?php echo $row->title;?></a> - <?php echo JHTML::_('date', $row->created, '%a - %d <span class="month">%b</span>'); ?></h4>

Hello,

Unfortunately, this didn’t work on mine.

I’m using Teline with JA News 1.3.2.

Hope you could help!

Hi sushismb,

Please upgrade your Ja News module to latest version 1.3.4 It has a param to show / hide Created Date for an news item.

Hello himangi,

This is strange, the file says 1.3.4 but when I install and open the module, it says 1.3.2. And in fact, it does have a function to show/hide created date. SHOW is selected but it is not showing. Any other settings required?

Hi,

You are right, I had not seen the version displayed after installation. I will ask JA developers to correct this.

Regarding the created date display, it does not require any other setting than the show / hide option. Please try clearing cache before checking the result. If is still does not work, please give your site url and joomla admin access at http://support.joomlart.com/index.php?/Tickets/Ticket/View/73484. I will take a look at it on your site..

Hello himiangi,

I figured why the date was not showing despite that I enabled it at the backend.

I disabled the “intro item” but I have 5 “link items”.

What I want is to show the date on all those link items.

By the way, I posted a ticket so you can see the details of the site.

Thank you!

Hi,

To show the date for links as well, please follow the steps below.

– Go to modules/mod_janews/tmpl and copy blog_item.php
– Now go to templates/your_template/html, create a new folder named mod_janews, if it is not already there.
– Once the folder is created, paste the blog_item.php you have already copied from the module files.
– Now open the blog_item.php and go to line no. 61 and copy following code
<blockquote><?php if ($showdate) : ?>

<span class=”createdate”><?php echo JHTML::_(‘date’, $row->created, JText::_(‘DATE_FORMAT_LC2’));?></span>

<?php endif; ?>
</blockquote>

– Now go to line no 95 to find <blockquote><li>

<a title=”<?php echo strip_tags($row->introtext); ?>” href=”<?php echo $link; ?>”>

<?php echo $row->title; ?></a>
</li> </blockquote>and add the code related to the date, you have copied earlier before </li>
– Save the file and you will see the date appearing after article link as well.

himangi, you are a SUPERSTAR!

No one here provided the solution but you!

One last thing though, where do I change the date format? With the current format, its year/month/date/time. I just want the month/date there.

Thanks so much!!!

EDIT NOTE: I figured out how to change the format. Thanks again!
