[Theme Manhattan] Incorrect Date Format (5 posts)

    I have been trying out the excellent Manhattan template today, and many thanks to the author for the time and effort involved.

    However, before uploading this new Manhattan template I used the European date format from within the provided templates (day, month, year) with no problem. But, upon uploading Manhattan, I lost the European format, and despite everythimng that I do, it always reverts back to the 'month, day, and year' format.

    I could learn to live with this US-style date format, but I would like to use the Eurpoean date format if possible. Perhaps I need to change something from within PHP via FTP? Maybe someone knows?

    Thanks for your time - Steve

    It seems that the author's site is no longer active.

    From the Manhattan theme author:
    I moved to another site, which is why the theme page no longer links.

    But here is the answer:

    in the archive.php, index.php, search.php and single.php

    there is a function <?php the_date('l, F jS, Y') ?> or
    the_time('l, F jS, Y')

    I forget which. but the 'l,F jS, Y' hardwires the date/time format.

    I pre-set it to the American way. Hey. Manhattan is in America.

    Just change it to <?php the_date() ?> or <?php the_time() ?>

    Remove the 'l,F jS, Y'

    That is all.

    Then you can amend it in the general settings of the dashboard control panel.

    Is there any way to add a second separate sidebar under the existing one?
