Day for the date in english for rss feed only

Hi @houba_houbi

Thanks for your message.

Can you share the code snippet that you used to add the start date in your RSS feed? Also, please provide the URL of the page where your RSS feed is located so that I can check it on my end. This will help me to investigate it further.

Looking forward to your reply.

Hi @darian

Here is the code :

<pubDate><?php echo mysql2date('D, d M Y H:i:s +0000', get_post_time('Y-m-d H:i:s', true), false); ?></pubDate>                        <?php if ( tribe_get_start_date() !== tribe_get_end_date() ) { ?>                        <dc:date><?php echo tribe_get_start_date( $event_id, true, 'D, d M Y H:i:s +0000' ); ?></dc:date>                        <lmp:endDate><?php echo tribe_get_end_date( $event_id, true, 'D, d M Y H:i:s +0000' ); ?></lmp:endDate>                        <?php } else { ?>                        <dc:date><?php echo tribe_get_start_date( $event_id, true, 'D, d M Y H:i:s +0000' ); ?></dc:date>                        <?php } ?>

PubDate day is in english but the dc:date and lmp:endDate are in french

The feed here (on a test website) : https://demo.crealys-web.net/wordpress/feed/lumiplan-evenements

Thanks

Hi @houba_houbi,

Could you try replacing the snippet you provided by the one below and see if that makes a difference?

<pubDate>
    <?php echo mysql2date('D, d M Y H:i:s +0000', get_post_time('Y-m-d H:i:s', true), false); ?>
</pubDate>                        

<?php 
    $my_days = [
        "lun" => "Mon",
        "mar" => "Tue",
        "mer" => "Wed",
        "jeu" => "Thu",
        "ven" => "Fri",
        "sam" => "Sat",
        "dim" => "Sun",
    ];
    if ( tribe_get_start_date() !== tribe_get_end_date() ) { 
        $start_date = tribe_get_start_date( $event_id, true, 'D, d M Y H:i:s +0000' );
        $temp_day = substr($start_date, 0, 3);

        if(isset($my_days[$temp_day])){
            $start_date = str_replace($temp_day, $my_days[$temp_day], $start_date);
        }

        $end_date = tribe_get_end_date( $event_id, true, 'D, d M Y H:i:s +0000' );
        $temp_day = substr($end_date, 0, 3);

        if(isset($my_days[$temp_day])){
            $end_date = str_replace($temp_day, $my_days[$temp_day], $end_date);
        }
        
        ?>                        
    <dc:date>
        <?php echo $start_date; ?>
    </dc:date>                        
    <lmp:endDate>
        <?php echo $end_date; ?>
    </lmp:endDate>                        
<?php } else { ?>                        
    <dc:date>
        <?php echo $start_date; ?>
    </dc:date>                        
<?php } ?>

As always, please test it first on your staging site to avoid unnecessary downtime in your live site.

Let me know how it goes.

Thanks Darian, almost !

Strange thing for dates with no end date : the date is not displaying or false :

And all the date is not in english,for example december : Déc => Dec

Hi @houba_houbi

Could you try the code below and see if the month is correctly translated? I’m not sure for June and July if they are correct because they both start with Jui.

<pubDate>
    <?php echo mysql2date('D, d M Y H:i:s +0000', get_post_time('Y-m-d H:i:s', true), false); ?>
</pubDate>                        

<?php 
    $my_days = [
        "lun" => "Mon",
        "mar" => "Tue",
        "mer" => "Wed",
        "jeu" => "Thu",
        "ven" => "Fri",
        "sam" => "Sat",
        "dim" => "Sun",
    ];

    $my_months = [
        "Jan" => "Jan",
        "Fév" => "Feb",
        "Mar" => "Mar",
        "Avr" => "Apr",
        "Mai" => "May",
        "Jui" => "Jun",
        "Jui" => "Jul",
        "Ao?" => "Aug",
        "Sep" => "Sep",
        "Oct" => "Oct",
        "Nov" => "Nov",
        "Déc" => "Dec",
    ];

    $start_date = tribe_get_start_date( $event_id, true, 'D, d M Y H:i:s +0000' );
    $temp_day = substr($start_date, 0, 3);
    $temp_month = substr($start_date, 8, 10);

    if(isset($my_days[$temp_day])){
        $start_date = str_replace($temp_day, $my_days[$temp_day], $start_date);
    }
    if(isset($my_months[$temp_month])){
        $start_date = str_replace($temp_month, $my_months[$temp_month], $start_date);
    }
    
    if ( tribe_get_start_date() !== tribe_get_end_date() ) { 
        $end_date = tribe_get_end_date( $event_id, true, 'D, d M Y H:i:s +0000' );
        $temp_day = substr($end_date, 0, 3);
        $temp_month = substr($end_date, 8, 10);

        if(isset($my_days[$temp_day])){
            $end_date = str_replace($temp_day, $my_days[$temp_day], $end_date);
        }
        if(isset($my_months[$temp_month])){
            $end_date = str_replace($temp_month, $my_months[$temp_month], $end_date);
        }
        
        ?>                        
    <dc:date>
        <?php echo $start_date; ?>
    </dc:date>                        
    <lmp:endDate>
        <?php echo $end_date; ?>
    </lmp:endDate>                        
<?php } else { ?>                        
    <dc:date>
        <?php echo $start_date; ?>
    </dc:date>                        
<?php } ?>

Let me know how it goes.

Hello thank you so much, works great.

It’s a mystery for me french month “jui” and “jui” are ok in english !

Hi @houba_houbi

Thanks for your confirmation and I’m glad that it is now working.

If you have a minute, a great review from you would be amazing!
