Date format problem for international users (only months)

[cclaerhout]

I've found a problem with date format, only for foreign users : the month isn't translated, it remains in english

In the news module configuration i've specified this format : d F Y - H\hi.

It should give this : 18 décembre 2005 - 23h36-
but it gives this : 18 December 2005 - 23h36-

That's strange because when i configure date format for vB, it works. With CMPS, it doesn't.

Where can i translate this ? I've tested in phrases, but nothing changes.

I'm out of town right now and don't really have access to test things, but I'll move this to the bugs forum to make sure I see it when I get home.

Thanks Brian ; take your time, "it's not at the minute" (french expression, don't know if you've got the same in english :D)

"It's not critical" or something along those lines would probably be the English equivalent. :)

Any litte news now ? ;)

Could I get you to submit a support ticket via the Members' Area here so I can have a look at things on your server? I don't have any additional languages set up on my localhost, so it would take a little work in order for me to try and reproduce the problem locally. It would be much easier though if you wouldn't mind allowing me to take a look at things on your server. :)

Ok, no problem.

Still no news ;)

Here is the solution to correct this :

In news.php module,

Find :
$news['dateposted'] = vbdate($mod_options['portal_news_dateformat'], $news['postdateline'], '', '');

and put below :

$months = "/january|febrary|april|may|june|july|august|september|october|november|december/i";
if (preg_match($months, $news[dateposted], $monthname))
{
$monthname[0] = $vbphrase[strtolower($monthname[0])];
$news['dateposted'] = preg_replace($months, $monthname[0] , $news['dateposted']);

}

It would be nice to include that patch in next release.
