'Created date' does not show K2 item and category view.

Hi

I have set 'created date' to 'show' in both category view and item view in K2, but the 'created date' do still not show in either.

I though 'fixed' the problem in regards to item view after setting 'font resizer' to 'show'. That made created date show in item view together with font resizer. This is a weird solution, but I can live with it

I though still need created date to show in category listings, and need your assistance on that one..

I use the Rockwall template and Joomla 2.5.11.

I have been in contact with K2 and they have let me know that this is a template issue.

Please advice how to fix this.

Best regards and thanks in advance.

Hi

Please edit /html/com_k2/templates/default/category_item.php and to line 24 which should looks like:

Code: Select all

            <?php if($this->item->params->get('catItemCategory') || $this->item->params->get('catItemAuthor') || $this->item->params->get('catItemCommentsAnchor') || $this->item->params->get('catItemRating') || $this->item->params->get('catItemHits') || ($this->item->params->get('catItemDateModified') && $this->item->created != $this->item->modified) || $this->item->params->get('latestItemDateCreated')) : ?>


add one condition, so this line will looks like:

Code: Select all

            <?php if($this->item->params->get('catItemCategory') || $this->item->params->get('catItemAuthor') || $this->item->params->get('catItemCommentsAnchor') || $this->item->params->get('catItemRating') || $this->item->params->get('catItemHits') || ($this->item->params->get('catItemDateModified') && $this->item->created != $this->item->modified) || $this->item->params->get('latestItemDateCreated') || $this->item->params->get('catItemDateCreated')) : ?>


Hi Teitbite

Thanks a lot for taking the time to helping me out in regards to this issue.
I have just tried to make the the proposed chance in the file you mentioned, but unfortunately without luck.

Tried to see if I could activate the 'created time' in any other random category-listing, but no breakthrough..

Any other ideas are more than welcome

Thanks in advance.

By the way... If you do not have any other ideas for a solution, then please let me know if you are willing to take a look at it and therefore need access to the site?

Hi

I will need an access to ftp. Please send it to my mail or via forum's PM.

Hi

I have found a bug in /html/com_k2/templates/default/category_item.php file. There was a name of value used incorrectly: latestItemDateCreated while it should be catItemDateCreated. It's working now.

Hi Teitbite,

Thank you so much for the excellent support and help in regards to this issue. Much appreciated indeed!

Enjoy your weekend and thanks yet again.

Best
