I've just installed the latest 0.2.5pre and it seems to work fine.

However, I was dissapointed to see that even though alot more "date display" options had been provided than in 0.2.4pre, it still has the same problem as the previous version ie. how can you tell a date like 11/05 does not mean 5 November or 11 May?

To do this and eliminate all ambiguity, dates like:

dd-mmm-yyyy or
mmm-dd-yyyy

need to be provided as part of the config. Is this hard to implement?

Thanks.

Date-string is returned from DATE_FORMAT mysql's function, so the month's name will be in english.
I can try to rewrite code and permit to admin to specify the name of day and month...

I'll take another look over the weekend. We're doing some mysql optimizations to the overall server as well, so I'll try re-activating the latest version of the plugin over the next few days and report results.

Keep in mind I wasn't seeing problems with just 200 or less concurrent users...over that is when the plug started to affect performance.

We routinely have anywhere from 300-1500 users on the site at once, so the problem may not present itself on sites with a lower traffic pattern.

I'll report results in a few days.

Thanks!

I'm not sure I fully understand what you just said there, because looking at my "last viewed" entries I see:

20/06 13:13

Couldn't you just query the date format string setting from Joomla? In Joomla I have it setup as "12 Jun 2006".

CB doesn't allow to have this type of date.
But I hope to have some free time this w-e so I can add possibilities to specify your own date format

CB doesn't allow to have this type of date, and Joomla too! Do you modify manually something?.

maybe we can make the option to use

mosFormatDate( $result->date." 00:00:10", _DATE_FORMAT_LC, "1");
