Date language translation on client area

Giuseppe De Napoli shared this idea 2 years ago

Under Consideration

There are many date fields in the client area not translated.

The last 7.5 version only added strings for announcements and not for the client area lists, so you have date format english only.

Hi,

There are currently a number of numeric-only date formats which can be used in the client area, These will work in every language!

Numeric-only date formats is a terrible idea/suggestion. It would only confuse the customers because in the USA the date format is MM/DD/YYYY, but in Latin America it is DD/MM/YYYY. In other words, if a customer sees an expiration/renewal date of 10/12/2018, in the USA, this would be consider October 12, 2018; however, in Latin America it would be consider December 10, 2018. Customers will not pay/renew on time causing additional fees, which will only lead to complains an bad reviews.

If in Latin

America we are using this system, it is logical that at least, there is

always the possibility that everything can be translated into Spanish,

including dates.

Numeric only or not - it needs to be translated as Tony explained.

This needs to be included ASAP. Emails and Client Area dates are in English-only, even with the whole WHMCS and the environment in a different locale. It is due to the main date() function that they are using to develop WHMCS, instead of strftime().

It needs to be translated as Tony explained.
