[HOW TO] - Add timestamp to order history 1.5.x

OK...here's the edit to add the Time to your Order Date! I didn't realize it was so simple till I grep'ed date_format_short
So here we go! This will only edit the timestamp in the Admin section. You can edit the same file in catalog/ if you wish to do this to the customer side.

In admin/languages/english/english.php

Find: Add this below it: For more information on setting the date function in php, you can refer to this page
http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

Now you will need to edit this file to change the Date Ordered from just a date to a timestamp.
/admin/controller/sale/order.php <-- Let's you see it on the Order History and Order page
/admin/controller/common/home.php <-- let's you see it on the Dashboard
/admin/controller/sale/customer.php <-- Let's you see it on the Customer page

Find all instances of date_format_short and change it to date_format_shortTS. Do this to the pages in the admin where you would want more than just the date.

The pages in the /admin/ that use date_format_short are...

/admin/controller/sale/order.php
/admin/controller/catalog/review.php
/admin/model/sale/order.php
/admin/controller/localisation/currency.php
/admin/controller/report/sale.php
/admin/controller/common/home.php
/admin/controller/user/user.php
/admin/controller/sale/customer.php
/admin/controller/sale/coupon.php


I hope all can enjoy this simple edit!!!

Will this modification work in 1.4.9.1?

Thanks!

Should! Since all you are changing is the php date in the language file. It doesn't effect the code.

Hi! Thank you!

But, how do I edit it in the customer's side?

I haven't tested, but I looked and it appears to do it Customer side, then you would edit the corresponding files in the catalog folder instead of admin. Take a look and compare.
