Unfortunately not really. Well, let me rephrase that. It can be done, but wouldn't be optimal. It would require putting a placeholder in the body of a message, and then doing a regular expression to look for that placeholder and extract the time. Then you'd have to do a conversion and then replace the placeholder with the the adjusted time. So, yes it is possible. I know how to do it, just not sure at this point if it's a good idea.

I see... so, with other words, it might be too much work on the server to re-calculate that for each view?

Why not store the edit time in the DB instead of in the message body, and then have (if edit time exists for a given post record) it display the adjusted time of that value?

Right, just like the B_Posted the could be an e.g. B_Changed, right? Wouldn't that work?
