How to change format date to dd/mm/yyyy [SOLVED] | Forum

Topic location: Forum home » Development » Custom Code Modifications

Hello

I have changed settings to change format date to european = doesnt work.

So i go to :

date_time.php

Line 149 (for me) i changed:

$month . strftime(" %e", $timeStamp) :

To :

strftime(" %d %b %Y", $timeStamp) :

But seems like it always in english and it supposed to be in french.

I cant translate it in panel admin and date_time.php

You can see in http://ox-fr.org

Can you take a look ?

Thank you in advance

Nico

Are you referring to the fact the month names are in English?
If yes, then you need to make sure that they are translated to French in Admin Panel > Settings >Languages (select your language instead of "English" in "Yo are editing ..." drop down list):

All is correct for french version.

- Since i make this modification as above in date_time.php it appear always in english.

- If i dont make this modification, european format date doesnt work.

- When i translate english version file to french, it appear always in english(it doesnt take traduction from oxwall i thing. Maybe from server?)

- Finally if i keep mm/dd/yyyy, all is in french.

But, i want to put dd/mm/yyyy in european format date.

Do you have any suggestion to make my dream realizable?

Thank you in advance

Correct code to add is : strftime(" %d $month %Y", $timeStamp) :

So you should have $month, instead of %b . As a result system will be able to use translated month names.

For me it's working as well, but I'm getting this warning on my index page (below user list widget and above ocs site search quick search widget)

Any idea why?
