[SOLVED] NCMPCPP - Unknown option: media_library_display_date

Hello. I recently just reinstalled Arch. Feels good as It's my about 10th-ish time doing a installation of Arch. It's the only Linux Distro I've ever used and I've only used Linux for about 3 years now off and on. I feel as if I'm learning how to do stuff SO much more effeciently and the installation teaches you a bunch of great stuff you can use outside of the installation process as well. To the subject...

So after reinstalling Arch, I have installed ncmpcpp, mopidy, and mopidy-spotify. There's a slight problem that sometimes mopidy slows down or hangs ncmpcpp in certain conditions. It order to fix this, you need to set media_library_display_date in the ncmpcpp config to no. So I opened the ncmcpp config via vim ~/.ncmpcpp/config and put media_library_display_date = "no", wrote, the exited. When I tried starting ncmpcpp back up, it gave me the error of Unknown option: media_library_display_date. I thought to myself maybe it messed up because I pasted it. So I deleted the line and wrote it myself... Still the same thing, Unknown option: media_library_display_date. So I Googled a ncmpcpp and it seems I'm typing it in correctly, but I'm unsure why it's throwing me this error. Anyone have a reason why or how to fix it?

Thanks.

man ncmpcpp | less -p media_library_display

So I assume they've taken this out? Because I cannot find it in the man page.

Correct. There were a few config changes for the last major version bump.

I was thinking something like this as last time I applied a config I found on dotshare.it, it gave me a bunch of errors for certain options.
