Change language date format

  • On my Dutch website, I use “j F Y” as dateformat for Bucket List and I want the months to be shown in Dutch. But regardless of my nl_NL.po-file (which works fine for translation of my website and other plugins), in Bucket List the months are still shown in English language. How can I change the language of the date format? I’ve searched through the plugin files, but I can’t seem to find it. Thanks for your help.

    Hello nicoswa!

    Yes we dont have handle the translation on the shortcode ??
    It’s an error, i’ll make a patch on following days to do that!

    You want to modify it on yourself ?
    If you want to try i think you have to modify :

    • line 79 of bucketlist_shortcodes.php
    • line 80 on bucketlist_widgets.php

    Just add the translation string, for example :
    if ( $displaydate ) $content .= ' <span class="date">' . __($dateFormatted) . '</span>';

    I’m not sure if that will works but something like that !
    Any case, i’ll update the plugin as soon as possible ??

    Best regards,
    Nicolas

    Hello Nicolas,

    Thanks for your quick reply. I’ve tried to modify, but your translation string doesn’t seem to work. Now I’ve made a change in line 71 of bucketlist_shortcodes.php:

    $dateFormatted = mysql2date( ‘j F Y’, $task->date_checked );

    That seems to do the job ?? Looking forward to your patch though.
