Problem with date on Mailer Behaviour

Hello all -

On my website - http://www.spongenewmedia.co.uk/ - I have created a form
that uses
the mailer behaviour. It is only basic and captures name, message, email
address etc.

The code for my email message is as follows:

Hello!
<r:mailer:get name=“name”/> has sent you a message on <r:date
format=“%A, %B %d, %Y” /> from the web site!
Sent: <r:date format=“%A, %B %d, %Y” />
Name: <r:mailer:get name=“name”/>
Email: <r:mailer:get name=“email”/>
Message: <r:mailer:get name=“message”/>

The problem with it is that the date seems to be stuck at May 7th 2007
whenever I get a new
message.

Can anyone help me? I want the date to be the date that the message was
actually sent.

Many thanks in advance,

Oliver C.

Oliver,

<r:date /> refers to the published date of the page by default. Use
<r:date for=“now” /> instead.

Yes, that is in the latest version.

However, I have realized there is a breaking change in 0.6.4 for those
who are upgrading from 0.5.x, which is that the Archive pages/behaviors
have been moved to an extension. When you are upgrading, extensions are
not available, so the ArchivePage model (and its brethren) cannot be
found. If you have any pages with the Archive or the Year/Month/Day
Archive Index behaviors, I suggest you change them to no behavior before
upgrading, then move them back after upgrading.

Alternatively, you could upgrade to 0.6.3, then upgrade to 0.6.4.

Thanks Sean -

Will update my code and see if it works.

I’m currently running version 0.5.2 of Radiant CMS - is this an update
in the latest
edition? If so, how do I go about upgrading to the latest version??

I have read the documentation here -
http://wiki.radiantcms.org/How_to_Upgrade_05x_to_06
but to be honest it is a little confusing for me…

I use a programme called Putty for SSH access to my hosting account with
A Small Orange.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Oliver
