Date of Original Post in Subject
Hey there,

Is there a way to isolate the date of the original post to a thread? I'd like to append it to the front of the subject if possible.

I have a forum that deals with fatal incidents in skydiving and from time to time and old post rotates back up to the top and it confuses people... or at least spook them... as some people seem to become confused with whether it's a new fatality or not.

Sure, it's just a matter of putting the <%post_date%> tag wherever you want it to show up. On the forum_view.html post loop, <%post_date%> is the post of the original post, unlike <%post_latest_reply_date%>, which is the date of the latest reply.

Thanks Jason! I suspected that would do it. I'll give it as go. Smile
