Simple Question: Date Formatting

{$news_message.body}

{if $usertype eq "C"}
{$lng.lbl_previous_news}
{/if}
{/if}
<HR size="1" noshade class="VertMenuHr">

The date is currently being shown in European format

For example June 10 2005 is showing up as : 10-06-2005 instead of 6-10-2005...

Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Forget it! Got it!

For those who want to change it:

in the config.php file

Quote:

if (empty($config["Appearance"]["date_format"]))
$config["Appearance"]["date_format"] = "%d-%m-%Y";

change that to

Quote:

if (empty($config["Appearance"]["date_format"]))
$config["Appearance"]["date_format"] = "%m-%d-%Y";

Ok - now it's not updating on the news module - does this have anything to do with caching?

How can I resolve this? Thanks!
