Extract a non-strp timstamp across multiple pipe delimiters

Hi everyone,

Given an event like the following, is there a way to get this to successfully parse as _time at index time? I've tried including the pipe in my STRPTIME format but it does not work.

xxxx|yyyy|xxxx|yyyy|xxxx|yyyy|123000|111218|xxxx|yyyy

I would think that the following would work, but it has not:

TIME_FORMAT = %H%M%S|%m%d%y

Make sure you have sensible values for TIME_PREFIX and MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD.
