Subject: Is it possible to change standard document creation time?
Hello everybody,

I'm new here. I use dokuwiki as a fast and simple CMS and am very impressed so far. I am on shared hosting and have no root access, neither can I configure the Apache or the PHP on admin level.

I would very much like dokuwiki to do some time-travelling, by showing pages I created today as having been created yesterday. Is there a way to configure it like that?

My dformat is %Y-%m-%d, I am in GMT+1.

If there is a way to at least come near to showing every page as one day older than it actually is, I would also appreciate every advice.

Thanks a lot to those who will try to help!

To answer your question: yes it is possible. :-D

Why would you want to do that?

Would you mind to enlighten us, just a "yes" doesn't help the one who asked the question, does it?
Please add [SOLVED] to the initial thread subject if you feel your question has been answered.
If my answer doesn't make sense maybe your question didn't either - just visit http://facepalm.org.

Hello Chi  and  kybernator,

It's just that there are some ethical aspects involved in antedating...

For the default template, displaying the modification date is handled by tpl_pageinfo() in the file <DOKUWIKI>/inc/template.php. Some templates (mine is based on dokucms) have their own version (look in <DOKUWIKI>/lib/tpl/<YOUR TREMPLATE>/main.php).

replace
  1. $date = strftime($conf['dformat'],$INFO['lastmod']);
with
  1. $date = strftime($conf['dformat'],$INFO['lastmod'] -24*3600);

Have a good weekend!

Another solution: set your time zone to GMT+25  :cool:

Enjoy!
