All dates in Oxwall are handled by functions formatSimpleDate and formatDate in /ow_utilities/date_time.php file. That is where you should make changes to make Oxwall work with Jalali calendar.

Karalius Kraujas, can you elaborate more on your question? Oxwall displays full year by default on profile view page:

I apologize for the mistake ( have no idea what why I was looking at join date) :D

To display year you will need to edit: ow_utilities/date_time.php

Function to edit: public static function formatBirthdate( $year, $month, $day )

As an example let's take d/m/y format (selected in admin panel>>settings>>main settings).
Original code for this date format is:

if ( $format === 'dmy' )

{

$result = date("d", mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, $day, $year)) . " " .

$language->text('base', 'date_time_month_short_' . (int)$month) ;

}

Modified code:

if ( $format === 'dmy' )
{
$result = date("d", mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, $day, $year)) . " " .

$language->text('base', 'date_time_month_short_' . (int)$month)." ". $year ;
}
