It is modules/feeder/rss.php that you'll need to modify. You'll need to add something like the following before line 45:

echo '\t\t\t' . date_format('%a, %b %d %H:%i:%S %Y GMT', $product['date_add']) . '\n';

I don't have time to test this code. It will probably fail, but it should give you an idea of what needs to be done to add the date to the RSS feed. Please let us know what code you used if you get it to work.

Hi, rocky

I need this feature on Facebook. Using the line of code, the articles in the RSS disappear.

could see your code line and see what is wrong? Please!

has anyone been able to get this to work? I put the following code from the above post into the rss.php file:

echo '\t\t\t' . date_format('%a, %b %d %H:%i:%S %Y GMT', $product['date_add']) . '\n';

but the output was \t\t\t\n not the date.

I mean it actually puts \t\t\t\n on the output file in place of the date so there must be some syntax line in the original code posted?

if I change the code to:

echo "\t\t\t" . date_format("%a, %b %d %H:%i:%S %Y GMT", $product['date_add']) . "\n";

then the output is nothing (or at most a black space). I just changed the ' to "

I found this on another site:

<?php echo date(“D, d M Y H:i:s O”, strtotime($date)); ?>

is there anyway to modify it to work? I tried replacing the "%a, %b %d %H:%i:%S %Y GMT" in the original code with “D, d M Y H:i:s O” and that didn't work.
