1. Open inc\widgets\widgets\_coll_post_list.widget.php and replace the function on line 123

function display( $params )
	{	
		$params['show_date'] = 1;
		$this->init_display( $params );
		
		// List of posts:
		$this->disp_item_list( 'posts' );

		return true;
	}

2. Open inc\widgets\model\_widget.class.php and replace the *while* loop on line 485

while( $Item = & $ItemList->get_item() )
{
	echo $this->disp_params['item_start'];
	
	if( isset($this->disp_params[ 'show_date' ]) )
	{
		$Item->issue_date( array(
				'before'      => '',
				'after'       => ' ',
				'date_format' => '#',
			) );
	}
	
	$Item->title( array(
			'link_type' => 'permalink',
		) );
	if( $this->disp_params[ 'disp_excerpt' ] )
		echo '<p>'.$Item->dget( 'excerpt', 'htmlbody' ).'</p>';// no formatting in excerpts

	echo $this->disp_params['item_end'];
}

Search the forum or php manual on how to set date_format

Sorry, I'm too busy to get it done, have to finish 2 websites.

You need to edit the following lines in starrating plugin 170-200, nothing else.
The plugin uses an old ItemList function, try ItemListLight instead. Check how the linkblog widget does it.

Good luck

Where can I find this "Post List" Widget?

Blog settings->Widgets->Add Widget
