Adding Years to the Edit Post Date Hack

[Patrick]

Hey all,

I have used the Edit Post Date hack for a while and it can be found here: http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/883

I noticed that the last year listed on it was 2010. I may need to use it in 2011. But, even if I don't, I thought it'd be good to post this for anyone else who might need to. From looking at the code, I believe I found the way to do it, but I thought I'd post here for confirmation.

Open edit_post_date.php and find:

Code: Select all

// Assign year fields
		$year_fields_text = array(
						$lang['datetime']['1995'], $lang['datetime']['1996'], $lang['datetime']['1997'], $lang['datetime']['1998'], $lang['datetime']['1999'],
						$lang['datetime']['2000'], $lang['datetime']['2001'], $lang['datetime']['2002'], $lang['datetime']['2003'], $lang['datetime']['2004'],
						$lang['datetime']['2005'], $lang['datetime']['2006'], $lang['datetime']['2007'], $lang['datetime']['2008'], $lang['datetime']['2009'],
						$lang['datetime']['2010']
						);

		$year_fields = array(
						'1995', '1996', '1997', '1998', '1999', '2000', '2001', '2002', '2003', '2004', '2005', '2006', '2007', '2008', '2009', '2010'
						);

Replace with:

Code: Select all

// Assign year fields
		$year_fields_text = array(
						$lang['datetime']['1995'], $lang['datetime']['1996'], $lang['datetime']['1997'], $lang['datetime']['1998'], $lang['datetime']['1999'],
						$lang['datetime']['2000'], $lang['datetime']['2001'], $lang['datetime']['2002'], $lang['datetime']['2003'], $lang['datetime']['2004'],
						$lang['datetime']['2005'], $lang['datetime']['2006'], $lang['datetime']['2007'], $lang['datetime']['2008'], $lang['datetime']['2009'],
						$lang['datetime']['2010'], $lang['datetime']['2011']
						);

		$year_fields = array(
						'1995', '1996', '1997', '1998', '1999', '2000', '2001', '2002', '2003', '2004', '2005', '2006', '2007', '2008', '2009', '2010', '2011'
						);

Open lang_edit_post_dates.php and find:

Code: Select all

$lang['datetime']['2010'] = '2010';

After, add:

Code: Select all

$lang['datetime']['2011'] = '2011';

Does that look like everything?

I appreciate your time and assistance.

Thanks,

Patrick

Does anyone have any thoughts? I will probably just end up giving it a try and then I'll report back.

Thanks,

I would love to help and test your snippet but in my board i have another mod which makes the same... and it seems to be working even for 2011...
so I am sorry!

[Patrick]

No worries. Thanks saro and welcome!

Patrick,
had a quick look at the zip file and from what I could see you got the ones necessary.
