2 questions related to JAbulletin as implemented in JA Olivine.

1. It keeps using this date (29.11.99) even though those documents were created at a later date.

2. How do I change the format to 11.29.99 (MM.DD.YY) vs. DD.MM.YY

Thanks in advance –

Hi
In each article, you can config create date for it

So here’s my question. On my home page (http://www.zipsalumniband.com), you can see the articles in the Latest News section as follows…

29.11.99 Alumni Band 2004
29.11.99 Alumni Band 2005
29.11.99 Ohio’s Pride @. Kent St. 1990
29.11.99 Ohio’s Pride @ Navy 1990

For example then if you go the Alumni Band 2004, (http://www.zipsalumniband.com/index.php/alumni-band/alumni-band-archive.html), you will see that arctilce has a date as follows…

Alumni Band 2004
Tuesday, 02 September 2008 20:47

Where does 29.11.99 come from? I obviosuly want it to show the date that I set in the article…

Thanks for any advice.

Apparently this module automatically defaults to the “Override Created Date” on any content created after the module was installed. It is very annoying, but if you simply take the time to click the button next to that blank and click that current day then it solves the issue.

Thanks, I figured it out…

Has anyone figured out how to reverse the date to read in a US/English style format? MM-DD-YY

In the module at the very bottom just change

%d.%m.%y to %m – %d – %y

All I see in the module is… Nothing about date format…

Hi
you can edit en-GB.ini (languageen-GB folder)
Search this line:

DATE_FORMAT_LC4=%d.%m.%y
add a line below like this:

DATE_FORMAT_LC4=%d.%m.%y
DATE_FORMAT_LC5=%m.%d.%y

Then edit default.php(modulesmod_jabulletintmpl folder)
Search this line:

<br /><span><?php echo JHTML::_('date', $item->date, JText::_('DATE_FORMAT_LC4')); ?></span>
Change to

<br /><span><?php echo JHTML::_('date', $item->date, JText::_('DATE_FORMAT_LC5')); ?></span>

That did it. Thanks again. Next version it would be nice is provided that option as part of the module control panel…

Thanks again –

That’s what you should see in JA Bulletin. If you don’t see that then you might want to reinstall to latest version.

Thanks, that is NOT what I see in the latest version… I simply used the template quickstart version… (hint might want to update this…)
