Month Name is Truncated – How to Fix?

hi,

you can change it using the EM templates then look at the file calendar-full.php and you might also want to read the docs @ https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/using-template-files/

just change the date format in that file.

What do we do when we dont know wich format to input in date_i18n

please read docs here https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/date_i18n

Thanks for this solution. I was able to change the month name, but cannot figure out where the change the day of the week from single-letter initial to either the 3-letter or full name form. They don’t appear to be set in that same file. Can you point me to the right place to fix those?

Thanks!

@ tonyfleming

you can change that by editing the calendar templates at around line 23 wherein it was in an array form;

Thank, agelonwl. I see that line of code, but don’t know php well enough to know what to replace there and with what. What should I replace the following with?

<td><?php echo implode('</td><td>',$calendar['row_headers']); ?></td>

I was looking for an answer, too for displaying the full month name instead of the truncated month name on the full calendar view. It’s very simple – just replace M….
<td class="month_name" colspan="5"><?php echo ucfirst(date_i18n('M Y', $calendar['month_start'])); ?></td>
with F!
<td class="month_name" colspan="5"><?php echo ucfirst(date_i18n('F Y', $calendar['month_start'])); ?></td>
That’s it!

Just posted this on the pro forum, might as well share here ??

one way would be to override your template in events-manager/templates/templates/calendar-full.php and replace line 26 with

<td><?php echo implode('</td><td>',array('Monday','Tuesday','etc.')); ?></td>

just make sure the first day in the array (atm Monday) is the first day of the week as per your blog settings.
