Convert Date from int

[asianboi]

Sorry if I post in the wrong forum.

I have created a new field called datetime and have this '".time()."', inserted in my sql statement. Of course it inserted as a weird # not the actual date/time. My question here is can someone show me how I can convert that into a date and time format? The output that I have is 1140887813

Thanks in advance

First of all you should use TIMENOW instead of time(). This will give you the same time during the whole execution of the script.

You can format dates using:

PHP Code:

$formatted_date = vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $mydatefield) 


You can also use any of the other Date/Time formats that are defined in your vBulletin Options.

Thank you for your response, can you tell me where do I put that PHP Codes? In the template or in the page itself? If in the php page itself, is it right where the SQL statement is?
