Geeklog Forums

Hi to all
I am using geeklog 1.4.1. I want to display time and date in other language but i can't able to do that. Please help me.
Thanks

The text for months and days should be in your language files: $LANG_MONTH and $LANG_WEEK.

That said, there are many places in the code where the builtin strftime function is called and that function depends on your locale setting. What is your $_CONF['locale'] set to in config.php?

:rtfm: How do I change the language?

Hi, I'm having a little problem with the date codification and I'll rather post here than opening a new one...

It doesn't matter what codification and locale settings y choose (I've tried all combinations of utf-8, ISO or Unicode with es_ES) I get weird symbols where some special characters should appear on the date. I understand that this data is obtained from the server so, do you think they might have something to do with that?

Thanks a lot!!

Try playing with this little PHP script and see what it reports:
bye, Dirk

Default date format: Wednesday, 03/05/08

Switched to locale es_ES, date format is now: miércoles, 05/03/08

No weird symbols there... so if languaje files, charset or server has nothing to do what I'm I doing wrong then?

In case it's useful for someone... I found out that the codification in the tag plugin language file was overriding the config.php file for the whole site, I just changed utf-8 to ISO and everything was fixed.

Thanks for that little code, Dirk.

Thanks for reporting the solution - I was wondering what it could be.

Did you report the problem to the author of the Tag plugin?

bye, Dirk

Instead of changing it to iso, you might want to remove the line altogether. Dirk suggested this before:
