Make sure you've set the proper locale in config.php. For the Netherlands, it's probably

$_CONF['locale'] = 'nl_NL';

I have automatically installed by CPanel. Must the config file be downloaded, changed and then again uploaded ?

$_CONF['language'] = 'dutch';
$_CONF['locale'] = 'en-gb'; ONLY HERE ? nl_NL
$_CONF['date'] = '%A, %B %d %Y @ %I:%M %p';
$_CONF['daytime'] = '%m/%d %I:%M%p';
$_CONF['shortdate'] = '%x';
$_CONF['dateonly'] = '%d-%b';
$_CONF['timeonly'] = '%I:%M %p';
$_CONF['default_charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';

The %A etc. are replaced with the current day names, etc. based on the locale. So the only thing you probably want to change there is the am/pm time format. See the documentation for details.

My settings on a Free-BSD server (characterset required)

Text Formatted Code
$_CONF['language']  = 'dutch';
$_CONF['locale']    = 'nl_NL.ISO_8859-1';
$_CONF['date'] = '%A %d %B %Y @ %H:%M %Z';
$_CONF['daytime'] = '%m/%d %H:%M';
$_CONF['timeonly'] = '%H : %M : %S';
$_CONF['shortdate'] = '%x';
$_CONF['dateonly']  = '%d-%b';
$_CONF['default_charset'] = 'nl_NL.ISO_8859-1';
$_CONF['timezone']  = 'Europe/Amsterdam';
 


Linux server:

Text Formatted Code
$_CONF['language']  = 'dutch';
$_CONF['locale']    = 'nl_NL';
$_CONF['date']      = '%A, %d %B %Y - %H:%M';
$_CONF['daytime']   = '%d-%m %H:%M';
$_CONF['shortdate'] = '%x';
$_CONF['dateonly']  = '%d-%b';
$_CONF['timeonly']  = '%H:%M %p %Z';
$_CONF['default_charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';

Assuming you want the dutch/belgian time:

add:
Text Formatted Code
$_CONF['timezone']  = 'Europe/Amsterdam';
 


Or do a forum search for the Time Zone hack

Because I have no experience with PHP I am afraid that the website will go offline. It looks very simple nevertheless. I succeeded to leave away the time and only the dutch date. That also looks very well and I am really satisfied that this went good so far.

I'm no PHP expert as well (to be more specific: I'm far from being a PHP expert), so we're lucky with all the helpful forum members. Thnx guys!

The timezone hack is built into Geeklog since version 1.3.10, btw.

o.k. I have version 1.3.9 - I understand that it is better to upgrade but I have no experience with it. I hope in the future this can be done automatically or with a wizzard.
