Adding month to infoBox

[Silverado05]

I usally take this out, but if you notice that on a stock OSC the box on the index page says " New Products For July". I need to know how I would go about adding the date like that. I thought it was %m when added to added to the text file but it didn't work. I am trying to added it to another box instead of the new products since like I said I normally take it out. So any help would be great.

 

 

-Thanks

If you edit the new_products.php file you will see that it use: strftime('%B') to show the month.

I tried:

 

 $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => sprintf(TABLE_HEADING_PRODUCT_SPECIALS
, strftime('%B')));

 

and it didn't work, just outputted the head with no date. Is thier something esle that needs to be done somewhere else?

In addition to what you've done, wherever you have the TABLE_HEADING_PRODUCT_SPECIALS text defined, use something like

 

define('TABLE_HEADING_PRODUCT_SPECIALS', 'Specials For %s');

 

I think that should work.

Ok thanks, I got it now. I had done that, just had it in the wrong lang file for that header. Amazing what a little sleep will do, see things a lot clearer.
