Forum start date
Now im sure this question has been asked before, however i searched for it and was unable to.
Is there a way to change when i first installed the vbulletin forums? I ask this question because im part of a community and we have been together for much longer then the vbulletin start date. All i want to know is if i can change that date so it will reflect when we actually got together. Thanks in advance! |

Since when did vBulletin define a start date?

I figured this out thanks.
I was actually refering to when you install vbulletin on your website it stores the date when you installed it. The "Board start date", I was able to find and im all set now. Thank you though. |

Usually the join date for User ID 1 is the official start date, as I have always thought, anyway.

Yes, I'd like to know also. Please tell us where it's found.

It doesn't store the date it was "started", although Boofo has mentioned that the user with ID 1's join date would be effectively the start date.

I didn't think it did either, but the guy clearly states he found it, and even managed to change it. So I'm just darned curious what in the heck he found.
But FWIW, our board's birthday has always been the day the first non beta tester registered, not a week earlier when I installed it and registered myself. |

He must have figured out the User ID 1 join date as the start date. That is usually what most boards go by and what makes the most sense in a lot of cases.

I have a modifcation installed called Activity or something. Well in posts it has a value called "Longevity" and it displayed the date of the original start date. I was very curious where it had grabbed that date from so thats why i posted here. Well at the same time i was searching around in my templates and settings and all sorts of places to see if i could find were it was grabbing that info from. I came to find out that when i installed that mod it added a section in my "admincp > maintenance > activity maintenance" and in there it was setting that value based off of userid 1 registration date.
