(2009-01-01, 06:25 PM)I Wrote: [ -> ]Is there a way to "pretty up" the time stamp? If the time is longer then 24 hours, I get something like "Yesterday 12:01". Is there a way to turn it to (for ex.) "Yesterday, at 12:01"?

Please reply. This is, somewhat, important.


Ori...

Yeah. This could be done. Open inc/functions.php
Find following:

if($todaysdate == $date)
		{
			$date = $lang->today;
		}
		else if($yesterdaysdate == $date)
		{
			$date = $lang->yesterday;
		}

Replace with following:

if($todaysdate == $date)
		{
			$date = $lang->today.", at ";
		}
		else if($yesterdaysdate == $date)
		{
			$date = $lang->yesterday.", at ";
		}

That's all.

Modification updated!

Glad you updated it, bro - but don't forget; you need to tell them to also add:

$l['minutes'] = "Minutes";
$l['minute'] = "Minute";
... etc

Otherwise, from the looks of it - it'll look for $lang['minutes'] which doesn't exist.

Don't worry, I checked it. These variables already exist in global.lang.php file

Alright My bad:p

Lol. No problem

Glad someone finally did this:p I have a function a friend made that did this. One question though, does this only do it in minutes?

Yes, this currently only shows minutes, but I can change it to show hours, days etc..

I'd suggest doing so. And I'd also suggest adding:

<abbr title="ACTUAL DATE">x ago here</abbr>

Just a suggestion, though.

Nice ideas. Wrote them down to my to-do list

Good to hear
