Geeklog Forums

Hi,
I think I've found a bug in the comment preview - it's nothing major, just slightly anoying.
If you create a comment on an article, then click preview. You'll see the following:
Authored by: <author> on <date>
it's the <date> that's always wrong. On my system it reports 'January 01 1970' on geeklog.net is reports 'December 31 1969'

This date is generated by code that pulls it from the comments database.
Since the comment hasn't been saved yet, there's nothing to pull out, so the date displayed is rubbish

To fix this, I've changed lib-common.php as follows:
remove line 2903.
insert the following at line 2903:
if ( $preview ){
$template->set_var( 'date', strftime( $_CONF['date'],time()));
}else{
$template->set_var( 'date', strftime( $_CONF['date'], $A['nice_date'] ));
}

This cures the problem and should only do anything is $preview is set.

Regards,
Jon Lawrence
