Date format | DesignWall

I have changed in Settings > General the date format because I need 25/12/2016 (d/m/Y).

But no change in my web. The theme always show as F j, Y

Is there any problem?

To resolve this issue, you can open the inctemplate-tags.php and find the line 114 to line 154.
If you want to change the date format in the widget, you can open the files:

\inc\widgets\dw-focus-news-grid.php line 117
\inc\widgets\dw-focus-news-list.php line 117
\inc\widgets\dw-focus-news-slider.php line 99
\inc\widgets\dw-focus-news-ticker.php line 84

I think it’s a very bad option to modify all your code. It has no sense!

The best option is that you change the code and use the WordPress function get_option( ‘date_format’).

Thanks!

Thank you for interesting in our product and your feedback. We appreciate it. I know this option is very hard to edit and not save after update the theme if you do not use child theme.
I sent and notified our technical team about this problem. We will check and update it in the next option.

I also think this is a really bad solution… We do use a child theme, but still weren’t able to make the changes in the widgets without changing parent theme files.

For the template-tags.php, we have just redeclared the "dw_focus_entry_meta" -Function in

functions.php, but what about the widgets? How can we change the date format without modifying template files (as you have used: "require get_template_directory() . ‘/inc/widgets/dw-focus-news-grid.php’;" to implement the widgets)?

I know what you want and your feel while facing this issue. Currently, you can not edit this file in the child theme.

To resolve this issue, you can edit from the parent theme. Don’t worry, we will update the theme and fix this issue, we will release as soon as possible.

This is really disappointing. Not only that it took 2 years for a new update, there are no problems solved in the new version 1.3.4. Only “framework update”…
I don’t know what “soon as possible” means at DesigWall, but I feel kind of fooled paying the maintenance and support licence fee every year for nothing.

Yes, we forgot this option. We have updated this option and released it in the Today, you can re-update the theme now. If you have any issue or question, you can let me know, we will help you resolve it.
Also, We have some bugs fixed and improved some options for the single blog in the version 1.3.3 not only update framework.

Thank you! Now it’s almost perfect, only place missing is in “dw-focus-news-ticker.php” as far as I see. So we still had to change that file in it’s original place, but it’s a lot better than before now. Maybe you could fix that in a next version as well.
