Re: [development] print token in theme layer

25 May 2011


      thank u all for comments, this really helped. But I'm still curios how I can
really do this anyway? There's a lot of other tokens I can use exept date.

in your preprocess_node hook set the date time how you want it with
$vars['mydate'] = format_date($vars['node']->updated, 'custom', 'd/m/Y');
change the d/m/Y to suit

Thank u :) I want to have "node submit time" the exact way I want, so I
checked out tokens available in devel(when viewing story node type) and
found out there are already enough details I need in tokens(like small day,
long day name,...). All I want is to <span> some of these tokens the way I
want in template, I'm gonna check out this token_replace() to see what I can
do with. maybe finish the job in preprocess and then use it in
node-story.tpl.php
Never done this before, not sure if it's even possible to use tokens
passed to node.
If I'm missing sth or there's anything u can help me with share, It's a
lot time saver at this point. Thanks for your time :)

While you can probably call a token replacement function token_replace()
they are usually reserved for plaintext user input in the UI. You have
direct access to most variables required inside the template or
preprocess function. If you elaborate a little further about your goal
id be happy to help you do this ina more "drupalesque" fashion itll also
give you more power in your regular theming.
