Hi, How to display the topic post start date and time instead of since how many hours and minutes ago?

hi @omgbud,

if BP 1.6.x, you can add this to your theme’s functions.php
This will change the date format of each group forum topic

`function my_topic_date_ouput () {`

global $forum_template;
echo date (‘M d, Y  ‘, strtotime($forum_template->topic->topic_time));

}
add_filter( ‘bp_get_the_topic_post_time_since’, ‘my_topic_date_ouput’ );

For for changing the freshness date/time, use this one

<code>function my_topic_freshness_ouput () {
global $forum_template;
echo date (‘d/m/Y H:i  ‘, strtotime($forum_template->topic->topic_time));
}
add_filter( ‘bp_get_the_topic_time_since_last_post’, ‘my_topic_freshness_ouput’ ); </code>

Take care with quotes (must be single quotes)  when copy/pasting from here

Hey Chouf1,

thank you for replying, this code works partially, it only get the LAST topic replied post date and time and display all the same date and time throughout the rest of the replies for that topic. Any helps? Thanks again.

`function my_topic_date_ouput () {

global $forum_template;
echo date (‘M d, Y, g:i a ‘, strtotime($forum_template->topic->topic_time));

}
add_filter( ‘bp_get_the_topic_post_time_since’, ‘my_topic_date_ouput’ );`

Oh I solved this with, modified the topic.php. Don’t mind editing the core files.:

`
echo date (‘M d, Y, g:i a ‘, strtotime(bp_get_the_topic_post_time_since()));
`

Thanks for the help Chouf1!
