Date showing just the date, not how many days old.

Postby Eurisko » Fri Sep 18, 2015 6:09 pm

Ok, going crazy looking for a setting. 6.61 RC2 changed my Date column in my search results so it shows the data of each post, not hold many days old, like it previously did. I have been digging through settings, and I'm sure there must be one, but I can't find it.

Can someone tell me how to switch the Date column in Newsbin search results to once again show hold many days old a post is, not the actual date in mm/22/yyyy?

Go into Options - Settings - Advanced - second line from the bottom check Date Age.

This has happened before with a couple of other Betas - it changes to the Date by default

Ctrl-t doesn't seem to work.
Using nb6.62 built 4358 but also tried earlier versions (6.61, 6.60, 6.56RC1).
