Im customizing the commentsystem, but for a templated system it isnt really customizeable...

How can i remove the 'Active, and IP stuff??'
How do i change the postdate format?

Why does the comment system havent any option?

The postdate format should be the same as specified in general preferneces.

All other objects, well, just delete them from the template.

Copy here the template as you have it now.

BTW, the "Active" and "IP" are probably items that only admin can see. Have you checked a regular user doesn't see them?

post date (xoops) format can be set by editing the language file global.php

ie. open language/english/global.php

find

//%%%%%        TIME FORMAT SETTINGS   %%%%%
define('_SECOND''1 second');
define('_SECONDS''%s seconds');
define('_MINUTE''1 minute');
define('_MINUTES''%s minutes');
define('_HOUR''1 hour');
define('_HOURS''%s hours');
define('_DAY''1 day');
define('_DAYS''%s days');
define('_WEEK''1 week');
define('_MONTH''1 month');

define("_DATESTRING","Y/n/j G:i:s");
define("_MEDIUMDATESTRING","Y/n/j G:i");
define("_SHORTDATESTRING","Y/n/j");


and set the format from there..

some modules can allow you to set it from within it's module preferences.

I think that the date format is set in the language files.

Look in your website_root/language/your language dir (mine is english).

There should be a file called global.php

Look for the following code (line 160-162 in my file):

define("_DATESTRING","d/m/Y G:i:s");
define("_MEDIUMDATESTRING","d/m/Y G:i");
define("_SHORTDATESTRING","d/m/Y");


Set the d/m/Y bit to what you prefer using php date codes. If you look below those lines in global.php you might find a commented-out summary of the settings.

For what you want, change the instances of d/m/Y to d-m-y.

Hope this works for you. Keep a copy of the unedited file just in case it doesn't

Edit: I see Vaughan beat me too it. Least now I know I was right
