Geeklog Forums

I am now running GL v1.3.11. I notice the Calendar day display has the date in the format: Sunday, 03/06/05 - American formatting (meaning March 6th). I want to change this to British, E.g. Sunday, 06/03/05 (6th March 05)
I have played with the date formats in config.php to no avail. Any ideas?

thx in adv,
Paul

Try setting the locale to 'en_GB', i.e.

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

I have a sneaking suspicion that the default locale setting that Geeklog is shipping with ('en-gb') is actually wrong and simply makes the webserver use the default locale, which is usually US-centric ...

bye, Dirk

Hi Dirk,

Would it be possible to include the locale as a user variable.
Currently the locale is written in stone so the name of day, month is not translated when you switch between languages.

I know the FAQ mention this as a "smart" thingie, but it´s kind of a bug if you want to allow multiple languages on your site.

(didn´t wanna hijack this thread, but have been planning to post this already for a while).

Greetz,
Boris

** edit - actually the calendar is the only place where this is grabbed from the language file so it was definetly the wrong thread to append too **
