I have tried this (the second option) but the date doesn't change in my comment form. The tooltip says that it only works if something is turned off, but where do I find that option?
Thank you.

hey misspeebie,
the introduced date format in the backend is working quite nice actually but it's not used everywhere unfortunately. in the comment form that you want to change for example it has no effect. instead you need to edit the author.php file which is located at components/com_komento/themes/kuro/comment/form/

around line 22 you should see something like this:

<span class="kmt-author-time"><?php echo Komento::getDate()->toFormat('%A, %d. %B %Y') ?></span>

note that this is already a formatted file to show the german output but you can change it to any format you want by replacing the characters inside the brackets ('%A, %d. %B %Y')

hope that helps

Thanks Alex! That works!

Ok.... I try to make an override for this file but can't figger out what folder structure to use, any idear??

And what about the date and time under the comments? See attachment please.

you're welcome.

for the date in your pic this can be controlled in the komento backend. go to integrations -> easyblog (or whatever system you integrate with) -> layout -> general and at the right side you can specify the date format.

for the override (very good you do it this way, unfortunately too many people don't care about that) this is how it should look for the author file:
yourtemplate/html/com_komento/comment/form/author.php

hope that helps

Hi,

Thanks for sharing Alex!

Thanks!! for the folder structure!

But the date and time don't change. I go to integrations > Joomla articles > Layout > General.

There I delete the time and put dots in the date... go to front, refresh and nothing happens....

you're all welcome

Hello,

Can you provide us your backend and FTP so we check this out for you? Please advise.

Thank you, details below.

Hello,

I've tried to access your backend but I got this: http://screencast.com/t/ljnxxg4a6 .

I can't see what I've sent anymore :-( I'll give the credentials again.

Hello

I've checked your backend and seems like you didn't turn off this option: http://screencast.com/t/8yj38VtZd . I've turned it off for you. Can you please check the date structure? Because I cannot access your frontend: http://screencast.com/t/mEZfoLiCu7 .

Just a follow up question. Can I remove the date instead of just changing its format? Thanks.

Hello,

You can remove the date by going to ..\components\com_komento\themes\yourtheme\comment\item.php and delete/comment this line: http://screencast.com/t/I6khnMC9AiV . Hope this helps.
