Inbox "Date" Settings - Day & Time

[bobbyavidity]

I hope this is the right section. In my inbox, it used to show the day and time (January 4th 10:00 pm) or whatever, then it started to only show the time. I'd like it to show both. How can I change this? I enabled "display full date" in the options so now it reads "August 19, 2009 but still no time. How can I change this? Thanks.

Not exactly.  You should ask on the users mailing list.

IIRC, the only way you can change this is to alter the code.  Normally
it shows the time ONLY on messages received within the last week.
Older messages just get the date.  When you enable "show full date",
all messages are treated as the latter.

If you want to change the date format of the "full date", you can open
functions/date.php and change the following, around line 366:

$date_format = _("M j, Y");

You can change it to something like:

$date_format = _("M j, Y g:i a");

Or:

$date_format = _("M j, Y H:i");

Consult the PHP manual for date format if you want something else.

Or use a translation.

This will break that string for translations, but if you're running an
English only system it won't matter.
