Hello,

We have a mahara installation with the spanish language installed, the problem is that when we post something in the forums the date is showed in English.

Should the date be changed in the forums using another langpack or would it remains the same using the parent language?

Many thanks.

Hi David,

try to add the following line into the longconfig.php file:

setlocale(LC_TIME,"de_DE.UTF-8");   ->>

just right after the defined('INTERNAL') || die(); line.

I know Windows isn't a supported platform, but just in case someone is using it, here's a "multi-platform"version of Heinz's trick :-):

 if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3)) === 'WIN') {
     setlocale(LC_TIME, 'spanish');
 } else {
     setlocale(LC_TIME, 'es_ES.UTF-8');
 } 

Saludos.
Iñaki.

I see the problem, is because windows doesn´t support UTF-8, so you need to define the locale manually. 

Many thanks to all of you!
