I need help!! ;)

Can someone tell me how to adjust the time regulator on the NEWS page?

I updated our News part of our page and when you publish it it will always show when it was published.
Now yesterday I recognized that it was the YEAR 2000!!
And when I tried to adjust it then I saw that it goes only til the year 2010!

What can I do to get the next years 2010 and up?
I want to add that I did not set up the page I am only responsible for the Updating and PR of it but am a designer so I have a bit of an idea of website design...I hope.. ;)


Thanks guys

It is obvious that you run old CMSMS version, your problem would be solved with an upgrade which would be highly recommended anyway.

First question is, on what version are you running?

And on what php-version are you running.

As with PHP5.2.4+, 1.9.4.2 is latest. Prior version of PHP can only run up to version 1.6.9. So depending on how old your current version is and the PHP you are running, the leap/step is know to upgrade.

Then, yes upgrading is free, in terms that CMSMS is free to use. Depending on who maintains your installation, it is hard to say if there will be fees involved for the action required.

PHP is the language where CMSMS is written in, next to Smarty.
The DataBase is then probably MySQL. So you are running all on a webserver environment, where PHP/MySQL is used, an run CMSMS on there.

Depending on the version of PHP, your maximum version of CMSMS is set.

But the line involved causing the issues is located in PHP file... ...modules/News/templates/editarticle.tpl

In older versions there is the end_date set on 2010. This is increased in later versions. As many security-fixes have been applied since, recommendation to new release is valid. If you dont want/cant, then this file can be modified.

But stating again, 1.0 series (basically all before semi-last) is not supported...
