Can someone please tell me what I can do to remove that from my articles?

Have you tried editing the story templates and searching for "date"?

bye, Dirk

But why can't it be done through config.php, a-la $_CONF['contributedbyline'] ?

BTW, same thing goes to the "views: X" line.

Thanks!

Thanks, I got it... took me a while, but i figured it out.

This is a snippet from a change I made to lib-story.php. You could do something similar...


if ( ($A['username'] == 'Admin' && $_CONF['show_admin_story_post_date'] == 1 && $_CONF['show_story_post_date'] == 1) || ( $A['username'] != 'Admin' && $
_CONF['show_story_post_date'] == 1 ) )
{
$article->set_var( 'story_date', $A['day'] );
$article->set_var( 'end_story_date', '
' );
}
//if( $_CONF['contributedbyline'] == 1 && $A['username'] != 'Admin')
if ( ( $A['username'] == 'Admin' && $_CONF['show_admin_story_hits'] == 1 && $_CONF['show_story_hits'] == 1 ) || ( $A['username'] != 'Admin' && $_CONF['s
how_story_hits'] == 1) )
{
$article->set_var( 'lang_views', $LANG01[106] );
$article->set_var( 'story_hits', $A['hits'] );
$article->set_var( 'story_hit_seperator', ': ' );
}
$article->set_var( 'story_id', $A['sid'] );

//if ( $_CONF['contributedbyline'] == 1)
if ( ( $A['username'] == 'Admin' && $_CONF['show_admin_contributedbyline'] == 1 && $_CONF['contributedbyline'] == 1) || ( $A['username'] != 'Admin' && $
_CONF['contributedbyline'] == 1) )
{
$article->set_var( 'lang_contributed_by', $LANG01[1] );
$article->set_var( 'contributedby_uid', $A['uid'] );
$username = $A['username'];
$article->set_var( 'contributedby_user', $username );

$fullname = $A['fullname'];
if( empty( $fullname ))
{
$article->set_var( 'contributedby_fullname', $username );
}
else
{
$article->set_var( 'contributedby_fullname', $fullname );


Is this the only way to remove the date and time from the articles? Looks like there would have been an option in the config to display the date and time if you wanted to - or remove it if you didn't want to display it.

Hi Dirk, where is this in 1.4.1? I'm trying to remove the date from the story on my main page too and found a lot of options in the config.php, but nothing to remove the time/date stamp.

Thanks!

I think you better try to look at the (storytext.thtml and featuredstorytext.thtml files). if you don't like the date and time, you just delete this {story_date} line:
