Description

Many pages on the site currently can't be page cached because they display dates with formats like "2 days ago". If such a page were cached then the date information could easily go out of sync with reality.

One "solution" is to throw the baby out with the bath water and turn off relative date disable so as to be able to enable page caching.

Another more elegant one might be to use JavaScript to dynamically turn absolute dates into relative ones on the fly. In this way page caching could be turned on and I could make my pages a lot more complex and packed with information without worrying so much about the number of queries on the database.

    Looks like I am not the only one who has thought of this idea:
