OK, it's like the topic said: New comments by users (registered users and anonymus users) have the date 01-01-1970, 01:00
I'm using 2.1 in a new installation
Is there a way to make this failure go away? The search-function hasn't found any topic regarding this error.
Very strange. Do new posts also have this date?
Does all calls to the PHP date() function have the same behaviour? Try running a simple PHP script on your server comprising the following code:
<?php
echo date();
?>
The result is:
Warning: Wrong parameter count for date() in /home/www/s/salnet/html/date.php on line 2
After I added parameters to your example, it worked, but it showed the correct date and time.
You can see it at http://www.salnet.de/date.php
<?php
echo date("l dS of F Y h:i:s A");
?>
I'm getting a 404 now, but never mind. I believe you.
OK, now if you can find a quiet spot to do it in your theme's footer or something, add the following:
<!--<?php echo the_time('F j, Y'); ?>-->
Then see if you get a 1970 date.
