Wordpress中评论和评论回复链接中的日期格式不一致

Question

The code below is the comments template from my functions.php in WP. It outputs comments with a reply link to every comment. When someone replies to a comment it says

"In reply to Name of comment author + Comment date "

below the comment text. Clicking that link, which I for simplicity's sake call the "comment-reply-link", gets you back to the original comment. So far all is well.

The date of every comment displays correctly in the format I have chosen ('M j YH:i'), which is in the first printf function. A comment date will display in the following format "Feb 10 2012 10:35" The date in the "comment-reply-link", however, displays in a completely different date format: 2012-02-10 10:35:17. As you can see, it also displays seconds.

The last printf function in the code below outputs the "comment-reply-link". I don't know where the inconsistent format comes from. It's not in my settings in the admin panel nor can I find it in the comments-template.php. The only place where the incorrect format is also displayed is in the comment_date column in the comments table when I open the database in phpmyadmin.

Would be very grateful if someone could help me get the "comment-reply-link" in the same date format as the comments themselves ('M j YH:i').

It looks like you need to reformat the $parent->comment_date .

Try adding this:

$date = DateTime::createFromFormat( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', $parent->comment_date);
$parent->comment_date = $date->format( 'M j Y H:i');

Before:

printf( '<span id="replyto">In reply to <a href="%1$s">%2$s %3$s</a></span>', $parent_link, $parent->comment_author, $parent->comment_date );
