Hi there,

I am trying to display the created date next to the titles in my latest news module, I have the following in my template override file:

Code:
<div class="date">
      <span class="myDayStyle"><?php echo JHTML::_('date', $this->item->created, JText::_('%e')); ?></span>
      <span class="myMonthStyle"><?php echo JHTML::_('date', $this->item->created, JText::_('%b')); ?></span>
      <span class="myYearStyle"><?php echo JHTML::_('date', $this->item->created, JText::_('%Y')); ?></span>
   </div>


But this seems to display the current date only, the above works for my latest news page, but not in a module.

Hope someone can help me out.

Thanks

Add this to the helper.php_file:
Code:
$lists[$i]->created = JHTML::_('date', $row->created, JText::_('%d-%m'));


and then in your default.php this where you want to publish the date:
Code:
<?php echo $item->created; ?>


Cheers ;)

Hi There,

Thanks for the reply, sorry for the delay, posted before the christmas break and forgot about the post.

Anyway, I was just wondering which helper.php file I need to edit, there seems to be several.

Thanks

Each module has his own helper.php file. It's listed in the mod_latestnews module itself!
