"Days/Year ago feature" on date type fields in list view"

[kbanerje]

Hi Team,

"Days/Year ago feature" on date type fields in list view"   in Geneva we see a new info label if we hover on teh date field it shows how many days /year ago.

In our DEV instance all goes good it shows perfectly ,while in our test instance it shows correct info too but only in front its written as "prefix_ago".

Can any one help me to get info from where this gets rendered which object displays this?And if possible any fix for this too?

Can this be for any property too?

Kind Regards

Hello Kirtiman, it might be much easier just to enable the system preference for Date/Time and set it to either Time Ago or Both. It's not on hover, but it will give you want you want, and doesn't involve any scripting.

Hello Smith 

Your solution seems to be easy and simple. A quick question, what are your thoughts if there is a need to change the Date/Time from 'Calendar' to 'Both' for all the users from an Admin/Developer perspective? I don't think we can inform every user to change it to 'Both' in the System Preferences, as they would like to the TimeAgo part. 

Appreciate for any help

Thanks

We are also experiencing this.

It happens if we select "Time Ago" or "Both" in the settings William referred.

It's also displaying "prefix_ago" for instance in the Activity Logs.

We are on Geneva Patch 6. We also had it in Patch 4.

It's a known error, with a workaround available.
