        $time = @date("m/d/y h:i a", $time);
      }
      elseif ($timeformat == "short2") {
        $time = @date("d/m/y h:i a", $time);
      }
      elseif ($timeformat == "short3") {
        $time = @date("y/m/d h:i a", $time);
      }
      elseif ($timeformat == "short4") {
        $time = @date("d/m/Y H:i", $time);
      }
                elseif ($timeformat == "short5") {
                        $time = @date("H:i d/m/Y", $time);
                }
      elseif ($timeformat == "long") {
        $time = @date("D M d Y h:i a", $time);
      }

Replace with:

Code:


// Still show the date in addition to the words "Today" and "Yesterday"? 1 = Yes, 0 = No

$j_show_moddate = 1;


  $j_today = date("m/d/y");
  $j_yesterday = date("m/d/y", strtotime("-1 day"));
  $j_tdate = @date("m/d/y", $time);
  $j_time  = @date("h:i a", $time);

  if ($j_show_moddate) {
        $j_showdate = "($j_today)";
        $j_showyester = "($j_yesterday)";
  }

  if ($j_tdate == $j_today) {
        $time = "Today $j_showdate at ".$j_time;
  }
  elseif ($j_tdate == $j_yesterday) {
        $time = "Yesterday $j_showyester at ".$j_time;
  }
  else {

      if ($timeformat == "short1") {
        $time = @date("m/d/y h:i a", $time);
      }
      elseif ($timeformat == "short2") {
        $time = @date("d/m/y h:i a", $time);
      }
      elseif ($timeformat == "short3") {
        $time = @date("y/m/d h:i a", $time);
      }
      elseif ($timeformat == "short4") {
        $time = @date("d/m/Y H:i", $time);
      }
                elseif ($timeformat == "short5") {
                        $time = @date("H:i d/m/Y", $time);
                }
      elseif ($timeformat == "long") {
        $time = @date("D M d Y h:i a", $time);
      }
  }
