Publication Date Format Not Applied on Detail Page

Hello,

I have set the Date Format in Media Configuration to Y/m/d. This setting works correctly on each page, but the publication date displayed under the title on the detail page does not follow this format (as shown in the red box in the attached screenshot).  

Is it intentional that the Date Format setting does not apply to the publication date, or is this a bug?  
I would appreciate it if you could provide a way to correct the Date Format for the publication date.

Regards

Does it take time for you to answer my question?

Hi,
Currently, the dates (showing below the title) are fixed with format: j F Y
You can change it by following below steps:
1. Go to the Joomla installation directory and navigate to:
/templates/[your_template]/html/edocman/document
If the those folders don't exist, you can create it manually.

2. Copy file /components/com_edocman/view/document/tmpl/default.php into above folder
3. Open file by notepad
4. Find:
<?php echo HTMLHelper::_('date',$item->created_time, 'j F Y');?>
and replace by
<?php echo HTMLHelper::_('date', $item->created_time, $this->config->date_format); ?>

Good luck
Dam

Hi Dam,

My issue was solved.
However, I would like to point out that the path to default.php that you provided was incorrect.

Thanks!

Yes, i have corrected the comment. It's: /components/com_edocman/view/document/tmpl/default.php
Thanks

Hello,

I asked a similar question in the past, but it seems that the old method no longer works in EDocman 3.1.
The date shown under Published on does not reflect the Date Format setting in the EDocman Configuration.

I checked components/com_edocman/view/document/tmpl/default.php as before, but in the current version I can no longer find
<?php echo HTMLHelper::_('date', $item->created_time, 'j F Y'); ?>.

Please explain how to address this issue.

Thanks

Hi,
That issue has been addressed in the latest versions of EDocman. The date format is no longer hard-coded as it was before. The system now uses the Date Format setting from the EDocman Configuration.
However, if you are still experiencing this issue, it is possible that your template contains an override of the Document Details layout. In this case, please check your template overrides to ensure they are not using the old hard-coded date format.
Thanks

Hi,

Unfortunately, the latest EDocman does not behave as you intended.
I confirmed this because I am currently building a new site and, after performing a fresh installation of EDocman, the same issue appeared again.
Just to be sure, I also checked the html directory of the T4 framework I am using, but there is no com_edocman folder inside it.

Thanks
