Make dates on announcements translatable
Completed
Currently the dates of announcements only appear in English.
This is very important feature for non-English sites. Please make this possible!!
Thanks.
Currently, you can add the following to you configuration.php file before the closing PHP ?> tag:
setlocale(LC_TIME, "fr_FR");
Simply replace the locale with the PHP locale that fits your geographic area/language.
This is a static change and will not change based on the selected language being used, but if you keep your WHMCS in a specific language, it could help.
Moreover, there are lack of date localization not only for Announcements, but thru all WHMCS in general. Notice the "Nov 2017" in the sidebar and "24th Nov 2017" as news date stays the same for any choosen interface language. I believe this must be fixed.
Hi all,
I'm pleased to advise this feature has been added in version 7.5. This has been implemented directly into the existing language system by adding these new language strings:
This means the dates and times displayed will change based upon the client's language and can be customised extensively via language overrides. We are releasing the 7.5 beta with English, French and Russian date translations included.
