Add thread time on forumdisplay

[Merjawy]

Hello

I know where to insert, but I need to know what vairiable to insert in forumdisplay to show the start date/time of a thread..

the way it is now, theres the thread title, the thread starter's name no date or time .. I like to add it there

I used $post[postdate]
$thread[threaddate]

and many other attempts but none gave me what I want

thnx

The timestamp for a thread's postdate can be called with $thread[dateline] in this template:

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Threadbit Templates -> threadbit

However, there is no variable that contains the parsed date and time for that timestamp. Adding such a variable would require adding code to the vBulletin files. For help with this I recommend you post on www.vbulletin.org, the official vB hacking site.

Thanks Jake, I will play around and see what I can come up with

I put in $thread[dateline] and I got a big number 1081233111 something like that

anyway, it was a try .. I thank you

That is the number of seconds since January 1, 1970 12:00am IIRC. So now all you need to do is convert that in to the current date and time.
