Original Post

I'm getting a weird result. Instead of the post's date, I'm getting what appears to be today's date. Here's my snippet:

$postDate = EB::date($post->getAsset('created_at')->getValue(), true);

echo 

	EBR::_('index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=calendar&'.

	'year='.$postDate->format('Y').'&'.

	'month='.$postDate->format('m').'&'.

	'day='. $postDate->format('d')).' " 

	data-original-title="'.

		JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE').' '. 

		$postDate->format(JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_FORMAT_MONTH')).' '.

		$postDate->format(JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_FORMAT_DAY')).' '.

		$postDate->format(JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_YEAR')).' " 

	data-placement="right" data-eb-provide="tooltip">';

//Language Keys

; EasyBlog Custom Strings

COM_EASYBLOG_CATEGORY_TOOLTIP=		"Search by Category:"

COM_EASYBLOG_CONTINUE_READING=		"Continue reading <i class="fa fa-angle-double-right"></i>"

COM_EASYBLOG_EXTERNAL_LINK_TOOLTIP=	"Continue reading in new tab"

COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE=				"View all posts from"

COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_FORMAT_DAY=	"dS"

COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_FORMAT_MONTH="F"

COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_YEAR=		"o"

COM_EASYBLOG_TAG_TOOLTIP=			"Search by Tag:"

COM_EASYBLOG_YOUTUBE_TOOLTIP=		"Watch video"

oh, I think you can't use that above code to get the post date is because that code is only get these is tweet post type.



$postDate = EB::date($post->getAsset('created_at')->getValue(), true);



// Try replace to this code to get the each post created date

$postDate = $post->getDisplayDate($this->params->get('post_date_source', 'created');

Hey David,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply,

May i know which weird result are you getting?

Because I've tried in my locally, it seems it print out the correct result :



/easyblog/calendar/2016/05/16 " 

data-original-title="View all posts from May 16th 2016 " 

data-placement="right" 

data-eb-provide="tooltip">

I'm using it on the Latest view. On every post it returns today's date and not the individual post's date. You can see this effect in the URL provided.

That appears to have worked. New snippet for anyone trying to do similar:

$postDate = $post->getDisplayDate($this->params->get('post_date_source', 'created'));

echo 

	EBR::_('index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=calendar&'.

	'year='.$postDate->format('Y').'&'.

	'month='.$postDate->format('m').'&'.

	'day='. $postDate->format('d')).' " 

	data-original-title="'.

		JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE').' '. 

		$postDate->format(JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_FORMAT_MONTH')).' '.

		$postDate->format(JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_FORMAT_DAY')).' '.

		$postDate->format(JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_YEAR')).' " 

	data-placement="right" data-eb-provide="tooltip">';

//Language Keys

COM_EASYBLOG_CATEGORY_TOOLTIP=		"Search by Category:"

COM_EASYBLOG_CONTINUE_READING=		"Continue reading <i class="fa fa-angle-double-right"></i>"

COM_EASYBLOG_EXTERNAL_LINK_TOOLTIP=	"Continue reading in new tab"

COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE=				"View all posts from"

COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_FORMAT_DAY=	"dS"

COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_FORMAT_MONTH="F"

COM_EASYBLOG_POST_DATE_YEAR=		"o"

COM_EASYBLOG_YOUTUBE_TOOLTIP=		"Watch video"
