Hi guys,
am i alone to have this kind of issue ?
i open a ticket to explaine the problem:
http://www.projectpier.org/node/3630
It's impossible for me to pick a date in any other languages than english (en_us), there is the language code and somenumbers inside the fields.
very criticla because of this we only can use PP in english.
cheers
cali.
Same problem here.
is there any news about this issue ?
I actually have been having trouble with this as well. I had to resort to another format (using dashes '-' instead of slashes '/').
Attached is what I've been using (which is so much better than mm/dd/YYYY).
Hello :)
Could i ask you where did you change it ?
thanks for your help :)
sure... I was looking for it and it was in
\language\pt_br\general.php
I changed it to
'date format' => 'd-m-Y','datetime format' => 'd-m-Y, H:i',
'input date format' => 'dd-mm-yy',
hope it works for you.
cheers!
yes you're right thanks the mistake was i had translated the 'input date format' sentence instead of put a date format inside :)
nice catch thanks a lot :)
but of course there should be a better way of dealing with these dates. In Brazil we never use dashes '-' for dates, only slashes '/'.
anyone who reads this has a better idea about how to change this for good?
cool it works fine for me, thanks a lot
it's been more than four months and I still can't figure out how to use the proper brazilian date format!
our format is: dd/mm/yyyy
but unfortunately it does not work.
I had trouble with this, too, but I solved it, at last.
The format for the date picker seems to differ from the standard PHP-format rules.
It interprets a d as day, m as month and y as year. If you use one character, you get a short format, if you use two characters, you get a long format.
If you use 'd/m/y' for 'input date format', this would result (for today's date of Aug, 10th 2012) in '10/8/12' and if use 'dd/mm/yy', you'll get '10/08/2012'.
So if you change the input date format to 'dd/mm/yy' you should be all set. For the date and datetime format you should use the PHP-compliant format as in 'd/m/Y'.
