[#4657] - Weblink Module not appearing in front-end; Weblink menu item shows as "unpublished"

- # 4657
Steps to reproduce the issue
Create Weblink items in the backend, ensuring they're set to published in any category. Create a new module of "Weblinks" type, ensuring the category and a valid position are selected.
In addition, create a new menu item of the "Weblinks" type (single category display).
Expected result
The module should appear on all pages in the selected position.
In addition, the menu item created should also display the category of Weblinks as published.
Actual result
The position seems to be rendered, but the content is not.
In addition, the menu item does display the Weblinks, but a tag called "unpublished" appears on the page. "Unpublished" appears whether or not the user is signed into the front-end.
System information (as much as possible)
MSSQL, IIS, J!3.3.6
Additional comments
There seems to be an issue with the "publish" calculations. Also, there aren't any files in the "components/weblinks/views/weblink/tmpl/" folder (other than index.html). Is that supposed to be empty?

Got it working. It's because DATE_FORMAT is not recognized in MSSQL. Instead, converting to date format is required.
Here's the proposed fix... but only applies to ms-sql:
\modules\mod_weblinks\helper.php
line 85
'a., c.published AS c_published,' . $case_when1 . ',' . $case_when2 . ',' . 'convert(char(10), a.created, 120) AS created_date'
