Metadates Plugin

Metadates Plugin Description
The Metadates plugin is the best and the only solution for the Cotonti CMF that provides you with a flexible capability to display numeric & textual date and time representations within a Cotonti template file. In the Cotonti basic package you are limited with a digit-only date and time stamps, i.e.:

2010/03/01

or

14:05 03.01

This problem was partially solved by a far-from-being-perfect Cooldates plugin written specifically for the Seditio CMS.
Why Metadates?
The Metadates plugin is free from thew above shortcomings due to:
Optimization for the Cotonti CMF
Output via localization files
Use of the Cotonti standard date / time output tags
Where and how can I use Metadates?
Metadates works via the following Cotonti standard tags with its own postfixes attached:
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE} in the comments.tpl
{FORUMS_POSTS_ROW_CREATION} in the forums.posts.tpl
{LIST_ROW_DATE}, {LIST_ROW_BEGIN} and {LIST_ROW_EXPIRE} in the list.tpl
{PAGE_ROW_DATE}, {PAGE_ROW_BEGIN} and {PAGE_ROW_EXPIRE} in the news.tpl
{PAGE_ROW_DATE}, {PAGE_ROW_BEGIN} and {PAGE_ROW_EXPIRE} in the page.tpl
In instance, a comment was created on March 2, 2010 @ 21:47. Via Metadates you're gonna have the following date / time components available in the template:

{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_YYYY}: 2010 // 4-digit year
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_YY}: 10 // 2-digit year
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_DD}: 02 // 2-digit date
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_D}: 2 // 1-digit date
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_MMMM}: March // Full month
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_MMM}: Mar // Shortened month
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_MM}: 03 // 2-digit month index number
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_M}: 3 // 1-digit month index number
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_WWWW}: Tuesday // Full weekday
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_WWW}: Tue // Shortened weekday
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_W}: 2 // Weekday index number (Sun = 0)
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_Z}: 60 // Number of dated passed since Jan 1
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_GG}: 21 // 24-hour format of an hour without leading zeros
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_G}: 21 // 24-hour format of an hour without leading zeros
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_HH}: 21 // 24-hour format of an hour with leading zeros
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_H}: 21 // 12-hour format of an hour with leading zeros
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_I}: 47 // Minutes
{COMMENTS_ROW_DATE_S}: 00 // Seconds
