Es wird möglicherweise nicht mehr gepflegt oder unterstützt und kann bei der Verwendung
mit neueren WordPress-Versionen zu Kompatibilitätsproblemen führen.

## Beschreibung

Current features:

 * Adds a new column on the plugins dashboard screen that shows when each plugin
   was activated, only if PAD was installed before
 * Control whether you’d like to see a relative date or a „regular“ date as set 
   under Settings > General

While by default the date & time settings are being used, you can always change 
the date format by filtering ‚pad_date_time_format‘. For instance:

    ```
    <?php

    add_filter( 'pad_date_time_format', 'my_pad_date_time_format' );
    function my_pad_date_time_format( $date_format ) {
        return 'm-d-Y';
    }
    ```

Here’s some more info on [date & time formatting in WordPress](https://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time)

In October 2025 the plugin will only show you the „Last Activated“ date for any 
plugins you activate AFTER this plugin is installed, but will not show you the date
that the plugins were installed if they were installed before this one.

Yes, I think so 🙂 The code is very simple, all contained in a single class. The
hooks are very basic and given WP backwards compatibility policy I don’t see this
plugin stop working any time soon and if you allow me the hyperbole, actually it’ll
never stop, lol Hail to the king! Great plugin!!

A nice simple plug-in and still working in 4.8.3! Shows a date when a plug-in was
activated, that’s all.

### 󠀁[So glad I found this plugin!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/so-glad-i-found-this-plugin-1/)󠁿

 [abooster](https://profiles.wordpress.org/abooster/) 3. September 2016

I’m so glad I found this plugin. I wish I had found and installed it much sooner.
Long story short: For anyone even considering installing more than a dozen plugins
this plugin here is absolutely essential! It makes it much easier to track down 
those pesky plugins that break something on your site without you immediately noticing.
I have about 50 plugins installed (even though I’m striving to have as few plugins
as humanly possible) and this activation date tracker is an absolute life saver!
Thank you so much for creating this tool! Most definitely 5 stars from me!
