Important Date format bugs and changes

Hello.
I am trying to set the dates at 24/03/2011 18:43 format, and so that it says Yesterday 18:43, or Today 18:43, if the latest post is yesterday or today.
It works very well here, due to the translation.
It doesn't work here, and yet, the date format settings are the same in Kunena configuration panel.
How to make it work in our English version?


The second problem is, that my dates strangely align right left and middle randomly at the forum list.
You can check it on any forums, for example our english ones . How to make it centered?

Thank you

G'day, romtim, and welcome to Kunena.

Can you please post your K 1.6 configuration report?

Firstly, and most importantly, please read the advice we have given hundreds of times about continuing to use legacy mode . K 1.6 has not been tested with legacy mode; K 1.6 is never tested with legacy mode.

It looks like you have a heavily customised Kunena template that has been installed in your default template location. People should never replace the original, Blue Eagle template with their own (or someone else's template). I was going to ask you to tell us if you have these "bugs" as you call them with the unmodified Blue Eagle template, but it looks as though you will not be able to assist in that regard. If you have not changed the Blue Eagle template in any way then you may disregard my comments.

I would also strongly recommend that you read Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) in the Wiki and implement "search engine friendly URLs" - this can save a lot of time later in debugging.

You do not have a Kunena menu at the top of your forum page. Was this by design or by accident? Perhaps you would like to read [Merged topic] How do I restore my Kunena menu?

Changing the date format is something achieved by modifying the language file (or files). See Where is the language file?

Well first of all, thanks for the advices.
We do know about SEO, and we will work on it soon. Our hands did not reach to it yet.
We do not have a Kunena menu, because our Kunena is intergrated into our Community Builder, and it would look ugly just beside the top menu, it was by design, thank you.
We have not replaced the default with the modified version. We have 2 blue eagles. And that problem does not exist on the original blue eagle, simply because that whole forum style is aligned on the left.



Yes, i understand that it is achieved by modifying the language file, because thats the only difference between these two forums, the language - Russian/English. Otherwise they are identical. I even know what files and where to find them. What i do not know, is what exactly to change and by what.

To sum it up, I do not need to know WHY do i have this problem, i need to know HOW to fix.


Thank you.

To sum up, it's your website, it's your design choices and, basically, it's your problem. I've suggested everything that I can think of and it's your decision to use or discard my advice as you see fit.

Perhaps someone else has a few ideas that they can pass along to you. The only other advice I can offer you is to read docs.kunena.org/index.php/K_1.6_Template
