    hi,

    is it possible to display date of post as freshness e.g. “23 hours, 19 minutes ago” (like at forum topics or activities in BP)?

    thank you.

    You’ll need to modify the post metadata display in your child theme.

    Take a look at the function: bp_core_time_since()

    It’s defined in bp-core.php

    It uses a technique described in http://1976design.com

    hi,

    found information below, but still can not achieve any result. Maybe you could write necessary php code for me?
    thank you!!

    bp_core_time_since( $older_date, $newer_date = false ) X-Ref
    bp_core_time_since()

    Based on function created by Dunstan Orchard – http://1976design.com

    This function will return an English representation of the time elapsed
    since a given date.
    eg: 2 hours and 50 minutes
    eg: 4 days
    eg: 4 weeks and 6 days

    param: $older_date int Unix timestamp of date you want to calculate the time since for
    param: $newer_date int Unix timestamp of date to compare older date to. Default false (current time).
    return: str The time since.

    @janismo – if you want a developer to help write the code for your site, you can advertise the opportunity on the Jobs Board: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/

    You can also search the BuddyPress plugin files for examples of how to call bp_core_time_since()
