Quickmail history - no dates visible

Quickmail history - no dates visible

Hello and I hope you folks can help me with an issue that we noticed recently, but have not been able to fix.

When viewing the Quickmail history, for some reason there are no dates for the emails shown.  And it is not in just one class, but seems to be in many, maybe all, courses. (See attached screenshot).  There does not seem to be an obvious setting for this, and the documentation for Quickmail seems to indicate that the date will simply show up and is not an option that can be chosen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks very much,

Sorry, I really can't help you. Instead, I'll just add another issue.

On your screen capture, we see the delete command. On my Moodle, I only see it if logged in as admin. A teacher doesn't have access to history deletion.

Running 2.6.2

Quickmail 2014022713

I looked in the system permissions but there is no such thing as "delete quickmail history".

We had the same issue with the date not displaying in the Date column.

I hacked the ...\blocks\quickmail\lib.php as follows:

At the top of the file...

static function format_time($time) 

{

        //return userdate($time, '%A, %d %B %Y, %I:%M %P');

         //HACK 09/02/2014, above userdate format was not returning anything, changed to format below

        

         return userdate($time, '%d %B %Y, %I:%M %p');  // this will display date in format: 28 May 2014, 9:59 AM

    

}


We are running Moodle version 2.6.

The Quickmail plugin version is 2014022713.

The Quickmail plugin release is v1.3.2.

Hope this helps.
