Feature Request: One date format for the entire blog.

It's been a little rough tracking down all the areas where the dates are formatted. Still haven't found them all, so I have different date formats appearing in different areas.

I would be great if a single date format was set in the blog general preferences, and all pages/plugins referenced it.

Cheers!

Hi!

Sadly, this is not easily possible. It would involve editing ALL templates and ALL plugins to support this.

Plus, also on many cases it's wanted to have a different date format then in other areas, so IMHO the possibility to change it per-plugin is much better. You only configure this once, so IMHO it's not really a huge task.

Regards,
Garvin

Not necessary.

A gloal setting might be easier for some users, but don't you want different formats in different context? Also Serendipity has multi-language capabilities. I never have seen a blog using it actually, but different languages/locale have also different formats.

I rather see the developers addressing other things. (Don't have a wish right now)
