Question

I’m trying to “tweek” the TimeAgo plugin so that I can remove the suffix “ago” on a case by case basis.

Here’s what I’ve tried

$("time.timeago-nosuffix").timeago({suffixAgo: ""});

and

$("time.timeago-nosuffix").timeago({ settings: { strings: { suffixAgo: null}} });

as well as

$(document).ready(function () {
    $("time.timeago").timeago();
    $("time.timeago-nosuffix").timeago(function () {
        suffixAgo: "" 
    });
});

with out any luck.

Answer 1

Just set suffixAgo to a blank string

$("time.timeago-nosuffix").timeago({strings: {suffixAgo: ""}});

UPDATE
Looks like the current version of the plugin doesn’t handle runtime options. I created a fork of the git repository and created a version that does:
