To change the article date format on the FRONT PAGE from the template’s European styling of: “Tue – 08 Feb” to an American format of “Tue – Feb 08”

NOTE: This is NOT in the usual “en-GB.ini” file (there are date formats there, no impact on the front page formatting)

Two files to change – same code in each line:
ja_opal/html/com_content/frontpage/default_item.php line 70
ja_opal/html/com_content/category/blog_item.php – line 90
Change from:


<?php echo JHTML::_('date', $this->item->created, '%a - %d <span class="month">%b</span>'); ?>

To:


<?php echo JHTML::_('date', $this->item->created, '%a - <span class="month">%b</span> %d'); ?>


Have fun.
John.
