Hi,

How can I change the date format to "d M y h:i:s a" for dates other than Today?

e.g 15 Sep 05 08:00:00 am instead of September 15, 2005 08:00:00 am

Thank you!

Can anyone help with this? Thank you!

What I would do is make a new function timeformat (found in /Sources/Subs.php) and mess with the formating there. Look around line 750ish.

Then go to the shoutbox file shout.php and find/replace the timeformat calls to match whatever new function name I made in step #1.  Should be in function Shout_Archive() and function shout_display().

YMMV   :)

Thank you! I have also managed to get the format I like by specifying it as a forum default in the administration. I prefer not to tweak too much and having to redo whenever there is a new release of the ultimate shoutbox.

Thank you again!

Add html tags to the template_shout_form() function in shout.template.php which can be found in the default theme folder.

Shouting  :'( at people offering free support on their spare time?   :-\

Reread the first post here, locate your special square by doing some educated guessing and putting gibberish "ASDFSD" (or something) in places that look like the code for the square in Apollo's index.template.php file.  You might have to dig through several files though, as I'm not familar with Apollo's layout.

Remember that this is a third-party mod, and it is not supported by Simple Machines.  If you are not comfortable with using third-party software, reading instructions carefully, or getting a likely slower response than otherwise, I would have to suggest against using third-party mods.

Otherwise, you just need to latch onto your patience.  It is, after all, a virtue.

Ok but I already made something like 10 POSTS asking for help!

Thanks for the answer but I can't find the square  :(

np, but you would likely get more help with that specific question (where's the square?) in the Apollo theme thread.

im not a coder but i think this will work for you tl0z, it did for me

Go to what ever theme directory and edit the file called index.template.php, inside of that php file go all teh way to the bottom until you see 


}
?>


before the }

enter the following


if (function_exists('smfshout'))
  smfshout();



so once you are done it should like this at the end of that index.template.php file


if (function_exists('smfshout'))
  smfshout();
}
?>


that will do what you are asking
