[request] Localize Calendar Date Format

Hello,
As I’ve posted a question on the forum which didn’t solved my needed : http://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?id=39492

Some of my clients needed localize website on their own national language like Arabic or Persian.
So I’m trying to localize the calendar date format from Gregorian to Persian or Hijri, but still not success to do !
Any way please help me.
Thanks

Re: [request] Localize Calendar Date Format

I don’t know if this could work for you, but I localize the date format with the plugin rah_replace. In my case I replace the English names of months with the corresponding Dutch names. Done!

I would precise that installing missing server locales or ICU extension is not an option here (insufficient rights).

Re: [request] Localize Calendar Date Format

Hi Bashir,

From your original post I understand that you also wish to do away with CE (Common Era) and show the Solar Hijri calendar as far as year is concerned which might make things more difficult.

Maybe one of the plugin authors would know how to go about it.

Re: [request] Localize Calendar Date Format

Hi Bashir,

here is a minimal plugin to output Hijri dates. After installing, please replace months’ names in the plugin code by Farsi translations.

Re: [request] Localize Calendar Date Format

Hi Thank you for your cooperation :-)
That’s good for Arabic and could you please make for Farsi as well (fa_IR) to output: 1392,
I think there are two kind of Hijri
one is 1392 and another is 1434
Thanks a lot

Re: [request] Localize Calendar Date Format

I will need your help for this, I’m afraid. :) How do you calculate dates in 1392 Hijri, is it just 1434 – 42? I know very little about it, sorry.

Re: [request] Localize Calendar Date Format

I guess you mean Jalali calendar. Please test v0.2.1:

<txp:etc_date calendar="hijri" locale="ar_AR" format="%d %B %Y" />
<txp:etc_date calendar="jalali" locale="ar_AR" format="%d %B %Y" />

Re: [request] Localize Calendar Date Format

I think what Bashir needs is Jalali Date, that’s a useful plugin, I need that too for some of my clients.
But I don’t think that’s absolutely correct right now plugin which i installed, because there shows 4th (april) month and for Jalali is first.
They have different months like now their date is:
Now —> Hijri (Jalali) : 13/01/1892
Now —> Gregorian : 2/04/2013

Dear Oleg, please have a look to these links I’m sure that can help you further:

Re: [request] Localize Calendar Date Format

Ramin, thank you for your interest and report. I think, the calendars are correct, but I have forgotten to treat some formats, for example, abbreviated month names (%b) used by Textpattern in default archive dates. That’s done now (v.0.2.6), please test. I am getting right results according to this site, but four eyes is better than two.
