Thanks. One question though. How might it be possible I could wrap some div's around the Time/date output. For styling purposes. I want to have the month/day/year all be stacked vertically and I need to apply some or classes. I've tried applying some class in the <code>return 'M d Y';</code> But they create some whacky output as I don't think I'm allowed to add any html in here.

But i'd like to show an image that explain about the post, similar to this <a href="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ndesign-studio.com/</a> For each kind of content, the image over the date is different, for example, to video post, or news, tutorials, each one with his own icon. I was thinking in put the .entry-meta background:url pointing to the image, but there's easy way to call each one specifically to the category of the post?

If you dig into the forum search looking for code examples of doing postheader filter or postmeta filter, you should come across a couple workable examples to help you wrap your head around what you need to do. If you look in /thematic/library/extensions/content_extensions.php, and find the code block dealing with the postheader postmeta, You'll see how the time/date information is added to a default thematic post, and from there give you an idea of how to structure your filter to replace the default date style with your custom stuff. s1m0nb on "Calendar style date?" http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/calendar-style-date#post-14198 Fri, 30 Jul 2010 13:15:49 +0000 s1m0nb 14198@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ I've trying to find out how to set up a calendar style post date.
