Love having the date, Wormopolis. Thank you. Gave the plug in a 5 star review. 

Is it possible to have a two line option? I have this in two places ~ one being the narrow sidebar. 

I dont know how that could be implemented since it sends the same result to every instance of the timer.  the timer doesnt have any sort of object association with it after that point.  perhaps you could put it inside a div and force that div to a certain width which would force the line wrap itself.?

Like this?    <div class="container" width: 180px  id="liveclock"></div>

[Wormopolis]

<div class="container" style="width: 180px" id="liveclock"></div>

try that

Thanks, Wormopolis, but it didn't work. However, I can live with it. 

It fits in most of the side bar container themes, but in some the AM or PM drops to another line whether I put in the division width or not. 

[Wormopolis]

would a smaller number help?

[♥ ℒʊ√ ♥]

It would, but if it's a lot of work you don't have to do it, Wormopolis. I'm just thrilled to have this plugin. I love that it inherits my themes. With so many, you have NO idea what that means. 

It's fitting perfect in the side bar in today's theme. townsquareexiles.boards.net/

As you can see, I have it at both the top of my board and in the sidebar ~ where the majority of my themes do accommodate it.

I meant a smaller width number.

Tried that on my own. Still doesn't work. I went all the way down to 145px.

<p id="welcome">Its <span id="liveclock"></span>,

thanks, ive got it working now. i kept the logout link by doing it this way>>> <p id="welcome">Its <span id="liveclock"></span>, $[logout_link]


i spoke too soon, the "preview changes" shows it to be working, but when i save changes and go back to main page, then it does not work

ok, got it working, you didnt say i needed to export the template. but thanks for the help

[Wormopolis]

export the template? well you have to save the template if you want it to be live...

you dont HAVE to do it that way either. the liveclock span can go anywhere you want it to be.

[chevy4life]

hm, it forced me to export the template to the theme being used

[Wormopolis]

weird. maybe you were on a different theme or something? not sure. usually you just have to save the template and the changes are live then.

[chevy4life]

well, in any case, i got it working, thank you for the help. and yes, we are using a custom theme

[tunescool]

wormer i love the date and time on my forum but i gotta have it a certain way, heres the options i would like added

the full day or abbr

Sat or Saturday

the full month or abbr

Jul or July

13th, 22nd, or just 13, 22

comma or no comma after date

comma or no comma after full date or time, whatever its set to display first

no seconds or seconds

a space after the time then AM and PM or no AM or PM

i prefer capital letters and think it should just be that way, or add an option what to display. people could change stuff for RPGs

it only does 24 hour time on my forum
